Cassandra Astolis, FL LCSW SW26759

Therapy is more than having someone listen. It should help you better understand yourself, break free from patterns that no longer serve you, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, or simply feeling stuck, we can work together to understand what's getting in the way and develop practical strategies to help you move forward.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of experience helping adults create healthier, more fulfilling lives. Before becoming an LCSW, I spent many years practicing clinical hypnotherapy, an experience that deepened my appreciation for the connection between thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and lasting change.

No two people are alike, so I believe it's important for therapy sessions to be personalized. My approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and collaborative, tailored to your unique needs and goals. I integrate psychodynamic principles with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). When appropriate, I also incorporate clinical hypnotherapy to help clients overcome obstacles, strengthen confidence, and create positive, lasting change.

I believe people are often far more capable of change than they realize. My role is to provide support, insight, practical tools, and sometimes a fresh perspective while helping you build on the strengths you already possess.

If you're ready to make meaningful changes and create a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and authentic, I believe I could be of help. :)
