Cassandra Chien, LPCC — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Cassandra!

I'm really glad you're here. Life can be overwhelming and challenging at times, and you don't have to navigate that alone.

My focus

I support young adults who need support navigating anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, relationship issues, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. Together we can focus on building insight, resilience, and practical coping skills so you can feel more empowered in managing life’s difficulties.

My approach

My approach is client-centered, strengths based, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where my clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. It’s my goal for you to come as you are, without fear of judgment.

My communication style

I show up with warmth, empathy, and a genuine desire to understand your experiences. I aim to help you feel safe, open and honest to share. My hope is that you’ll feel supported with me alongside you as an empathetic partner.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for becoming a therapist comes from a deep desire to see others grow and thrive. Through both my own experiences with therapy, and witnessing the transformative power of therapy in others lives, it’s my goal to help others on their journey toward healing, self-love and empowerment.

My goals for you

I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you in what you need most. Together we can create goals that feel meaningful and achievable, helping you build a greater sense of empowerment and direction in your life.

Our first session

In our first session we’ll spend time getting to know each other, what brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping for, and how I can best support you. You don’t need to have everything figured out - just come as you are and we’ll take it one step at a time together.
