About Cassandra
Cassandra LaBahn is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, evidence-based support for anxiety and stress. She names the client as the expert in their life and works alongside them to build on existing strengths. Cassandra aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person’s pace.
She brings three years of professional experience from Missouri into each session. That experience includes supporting people facing LGBT-related concerns and survivors of trauma and abuse. Cassandra helps people talk through panic symptoms, relationship strain, career stress, parenting pressures, and transitions that feel overwhelming.
In sessions she uses proven therapeutic techniques and keeps language simple. Conversations tend to focus on what’s happening now, what patterns keep repeating, and small changes that make daily life easier. She offers a calm, steady presence and encourages practical tools alongside personal reflection.
Cassandra often addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She also supports people working through money worries, questions of life purpose, sexuality, and self-worth. Her approach balances short-term coping strategies with attention to longer-term goals.
If you are looking for help with panic disorder or panic attacks, she includes those concerns among her focus areas. To start, she invites you to take the first step and complete a short matching questionnaire so you can schedule a session that fits your needs and timing.
Evidence-informed approaches for anxiety and trauma online
Many clients find clear, structured techniques helpful for panic and anxiety. Cognitive-style approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new ways to respond, often using short exercises between sessions to build confidence. Exposure-based steps involve gradual, manageable practice facing feared sensations or situations to lower reactivity over time.Trauma-informed work prioritizes safety and pacing, helping people name what happened, make sense of its effects, and learn skills for emotion regulation and grounding. These approaches are practical and collaborative, and they are chosen to match what you want to change and how quickly you hope to see differences.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with you to decide which techniques fit your goals, history, and comfort level. Sessions are a team effort - she listens, suggests options, and adjusts plans based on what helps you most.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that works better. It can also make regular practice between sessions simpler, since tools and homework can be shared digitally to support steady progress.
