Dr. Cassandra Kandah, PhD

Psychologist
IL
I’m a therapist, a health psychologist, and also a real person who understands how overwhelming it can feel to live with a medical condition or the aftermath of medical trauma. I love spending time with my family and friends, staying active in my hometown of Chicago, and most of all, sitting with people who are facing some of the hardest moments of their lives and helping them find a way forward that feels calmer, safer, and more hopeful. In graduate school, I was able to bring together my passions for health, psychology, and psychotherapy. I focused on one central question: how can we support both your emotional well‑being and your physical health, especially when you’re living with chronic illness, frightening diagnoses, or painful medical experiences? Over time, I noticed many clients were not only struggling with anxiety, depression, or traumatic medical memories, but were also feeling stuck in their bodies—exhausted, in pain, or discouraged by changes in their health.
