Hey there, I’m Cassidy — a therapist who learned early on that young people often carry a lot more than the world expects from them. Growing up, I watched friends struggle with anxiety, identity, substance use, and challenging family dynamics, only to be met with:

“You’re too young to be dealing with that.”

Those moments lit a fire in me. I wanted to create the kind of support that didn’t exist for so many of us — a space where your experience is taken seriously, and where you don’t have to shrink or minimize what you’re going through. That path eventually led me to working in co-occurring substance use and mental health programs for young adults and their families, work I’ve continued for over a decade. In 2024, I opened my private practice to honor my belief in slowing down, being intentional, and creating a space where meaningful change can actually take root.

Today, I help young adults in NC and TX who show up for everything and everyone — the reliable ones, the high-achievers, the ones trying to “figure it out” while quietly burning out.

My approach is simple: therapy should feel safe, real, and human. I’m curious, honest, humorous, and grounded. I’m transparent when it counts because change is hard — and you deserve someone who will hold space while also helping you move forward. We focus on values, practical tools, and accountability between sessions so momentum doesn’t get lost in the busyness of life.

The mental health field is shifting in a way that gives me hope. More people are talking openly about therapy; more families are embracing it; more young adults are choosing growth over silence. Being part of that cultural shift is one of my favorite things about this work.

Outside of therapy, you’ll find me with my family, camera in hand, scouting out dessert menus, and keeping up with all things Bravo. And if it's football season, I’m cheering way too loudly for the Eagles — Go Birds!
