Getting to know Cassandra Allen

Hi there, I'm Cassandra! Cassandra Allen � LICENSED MARRIAGE AND FAMILY THERAPIST LMFT116466; specializing in helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of relationships and life's challenges. With 15 years of experience in the field, I am passionate about guiding my clients toward healthier, more fulfilling connections with themselves and others. I earned my Master's in Psychology from Chapman University, which laid the foundation for my work as an LMFT. My approach My therapeutic methods are eclectic, drawing from a variety of evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Adlerian Therapy, and Family Systems Theory. My focus I have experience working with a diverse range of clients, including couples, parents, and individuals facing relationship difficulties, life transitions, and emotional distress. My communication style My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, understanding, and collaboration. My journey to mental healthcare I was a parent volunteer at the school when our children were growing up. I was asked to assist in parenting training based on how we raised our children. Later, I volunteered after school with children and parents who were struggling. One of my children's teachers asked if I had ever considered being a counselor based on my success with some of the parents and children. I already had a Bachelor's degree, so I enrolled in the master's program and became an LMFT. My goals for you Goals are developed by the client based on their identified needs. My first session with you The intake process occurs during the first session, with the second session serving as the first therapy session.
