Background and approach
When substance use or process addictions such as gambling or problematic pornography appear, she helps clients identify patterns and find alternatives. <brHer work draws on several evidence-informed methods. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills can help with emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing offers a way to process traumatic memories.
Motivational Interviewing supports readiness for change when addiction or ambivalence is present, and Internal Family Systems helps people understand different internal parts that influence behavior. Cassondra aims to build practical skills alongside deeper understanding. Sessions typically include skill teaching, problem-solving, and talking through painful memories at a pace the client sets.
She encourages realistic goals and small steps that fit everyday life. With six years of experience as an LPC, she brings steady clinical experience while keeping sessions approachable. Conversations are held in English and she works with people both in Wisconsin and internationally.
How DBT and EMDR translate to online care
Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on teaching skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships. Online DBT sessions often include practicing short skills, homework, and real-time coaching through video or text when needed.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps people process distressing memories so they feel less upsetting. In an online setting EMDR uses guided sets of attention alongside conversation to work through traumatic material at a pace the person can handle.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether DBT, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems, or a mix will fit best and adjust as work progresses.
Online therapy offers flexibility. Video calls let for face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t desired. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or situations when typing fits better. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or medical schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
