I approach to counseling and therapy is that we're all striving to connect with our whole or "essence" self that resides within us. I see myself as a facilitator of that change. I am a holistic and trauma-informed therapist with some twenty-five years' experience.

Growing up in Africa as part of a large family with limited resources, I learned the values of resilience, perseverance, and community. My journey was not without challenges. I struggled with confidence, questioned my worth, and often felt unseen and ignored . Those experiences shaped my understanding of how deeply people need to feel valued, understood, and supported. Today, in my work as a therapist, I strive to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and respected. Every person carries a unique story and deserves the opportunity to have their story honored with dignity, curiosity, and compassion.

I'm Kassandra, a Licensed Independent Social Worker trained at Case Western Reserve

University. My clinical foundation was built doing crisis intervention and specialized

trauma work with survivors of sexual assault, child abuse, and sex trafficking before

I became independently licensed. That experience isn't a line on a resume. It's the reason

I can sit with the hardest things clients bring in without needing them to minimize,

manage, or explain themselves first. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults

individually and with couples. I'm explicitly LGBTQIA+-affirming and have experience

with transgender and identity-related concerns. I offer telehealth across Ohio and accept

insurance through Headway.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Hamilton, OH

Searching for therapists in Hamilton starts with finding the right clinical fit for your needs. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or a major life transition. As you compare Hamilton counselors, look for therapists whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or another style that fits your preferences.

In a smaller city like Hamilton, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger metro areas, so virtual therapy can expand your choices while keeping care accessible from home. You may prefer an in-person office near Downtown Hamilton, Pleasant Avenue, or another nearby area, or you may need virtual sessions that fit around work, school, or caregiving. When narrowing your search, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that match your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can also show how each therapist describes their communication style and session structure.

Therapy in Hamilton can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists in Hamilton who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and may have availability for new patients, so you can review profiles and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
