About

Cassandra Sissom, LPC, LCPC – Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor

I’m a licensed clinical professional counselor serving clients in Illinois and Missouri, dedicated to helping women manage stress, anxiety, burnout, and life transitions. My goal is simple: to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where you can feel at ease, gain clarity, and make meaningful changes.

Whether you’re navigating a tough season, struggling with self-doubt, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, we’ll work together at your pace. I believe every woman has the potential to grow and thrive with the right support—let’s work together to help you build the life you deserve.

Therapy Tailored to You—Practical, Supportive, and Backed by Science

I believe therapy should be both effective and personal—grounded in proven methods while tailored to fit you. We’ll start with techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to build a strong foundation, creating a toolbox of skills you can use both in and outside of sessions.

Science tells us that self-compassion and mindfulness can actually rewire the brain, making us more resilient and better equipped to handle stress. These techniques don’t just help in the moment—they can heal old wounds and free you from patterns that are holding you back.

I love helping people rediscover their inner strength. Whether you’re looking to improve relationships, manage stress, or simply feel more at peace, we’ll find an approach that works for you. We’ll go at your pace, adjusting as needed to make sure therapy feels both meaningful and practical.

You deserve support that fits your unique journey—let’s build it together.

“You can’t be afraid of getting back up, dusting yourself off, and trying again. That’s the way life is. With a new day comes new strength and new thoughts.” Beyoncé
