“I look forward to weekly sessions with Casey - she is thoughtful with her approach and always ensures to explain things in full. She listens and genuinely cares about you. And she’s real…I don’t feel like I’m being lectured or told what to do. It’s refreshing!
She gives practical next steps but also gives you the time and space to apply those as appropriate - there is never pressure from her but instead, a genuine sense of care and support.

Getting to know Cassandra Leone
Cassandra Leone is a Licensed Professional Counselor, license number 37PC01076500. She holds a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from SUNY Old Westbury.
My therapeutic approach is integrative and client-centered. I utilize evidence-based modalities such as psychodynamic therapy techniques, trauma-focused interventions, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), internal family systems therapy (IFS), mentalization-based therapy, motivational interviewing, and various somatic approaches. Modalities are chosen and tailored to the needs of each individual client.
My main areas of focus include borderline personality disorder, substance use, trauma, complex PTSD (C-PTSD), mood disorders, family issues, and relationship/marital challenges. In addition, I have experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community, providing affirming care around identity and sexuality.
I strongly emphasize the therapeutic relationship, creating a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to access the vulnerability needed to do deep therapeutic work. I strive to be attuned to my clients' needs and am passionate about helping them realize their innate potential to heal.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first session will be an intake, where I will review your history and your reasons for coming to therapy. After that, we will typically meet once per week to work through your emotions and goals together.

Don’t see your insurance?
It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more
Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $185 for 60 minutes
Ongoing session: $135-185 for 55 minutes
- Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
More information on payments and coverage
I am in network with many major insurance companies. I can also provide you with a superbill if you wish to utilize out of network benefits and obtain reimbursement.

Casey is such an amazing therapist! I feel a very noticeable and positive change in my mental health and my relationships since I started working with her.
She listens to me, gives me time and space to figure things out on my own while also helping to guide me, helps me process complicated feelings and have hard conversations, and explains complex psychology concepts in an easy to understand way all while mixing humor with more serious conversations.
I feel very understood and heard by Casey and couldn’t recommend her more!

I have been working with Casey for years. She has been so essential to my healing journey that when she left her previous office to go off on her own, I had to follow! The best way I can describe a session with Casey is a long talk with a good friend who also happens to be well trained in mental health counseling. I always feel much lighter after! Casey has a beautiful energy and is thoughtful, insightful, knowledgeable and genuinely concerned for the well-being of her clients. She is always willing to make herself available when times are tough and is more than happy to provide information, suggestions, and resources she feels might be beneficial to you. She focuses on evidence-based practice but is still able to think outside the box. She approaches things with an open mind, empathy, and a little bit of humor (which I’ve always found very refreshing). I truly can’t say enough great things about her as a professional and a person.

Casey is a wonderful therapist. She's attentive, a great listener, has a wide range of knowledge of different techniques and adapts those techniques to what would work best for me. She's given me lots of directly actionable advice, and is overall the best therapist I've ever worked with. Cannot recommend Casey enough..
