APPROACH TO THERAPY

Understanding the connections

Kasandra helps clients explore connections among their thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and experiences. Together, these patterns can provide a clearer understanding of what may be contributing to current challenges.

Her work also focuses on developing practical coping strategies that clients can use in everyday life, while supporting greater insight, resilience, and confidence in navigating difficult experiences.

Background and education

Kasandra holds a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in Sport Psychology.

She has also completed additional education in Recreation Therapy and Addictions and Mental Health, contributing to a broad understanding of wellbeing, behaviour, coping, and the different factors that can influence a person’s experiences.

THERAPEUTIC PHILOSOPHY

Therapy as a collaborative process

Kasandra believes therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected, and involved in the process. She views therapy as something built collaboratively rather than something done to a person.
