“Cassandra was lovely to speak to. She was interested in hearing what I had to say so I can tell she cared. She helped me reframe some of my thoughts and helped me learn about setting boundaries firmly.”

I hold a Master's in Social Work from Adelphi University.

What should a new client know about working with you?
Expect to be inspired to be Your best self. Be open to getting outside of your comfort zone in a safe, supportive environment where growth and development and joy are all likely outcomes, and discover new goals and aspirations you didn't know you had and nurture that which is within you that hunger and thirsts for approval, validation, self-worth and self-approval.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
