Kassandra (Kassie) Palmas, LMFT

Pronouns: She/her/hers

Therapy Style: Empowering, Holistic, Open-Minded

As a therapist with a mixed cultural background and my own experiences with mental health, I understand how personal identity shapes our mental health and how we cope. My own journey with recovery and identity has inspired me to combine culture with therapy, offering compassionate care that feels relatable and is authentic to who you are. I’m passionate about helping people navigate challenges like eating disorders, body image, identity issues, anxiety, depression, and life transitions because I know how important it is to have a nonjudgmental and supportive professional that truly sees and hears you.

I believe therapy is about collaboration. We work together, and I make sure that your unique experiences are respected and woven into the fabric of your care. I never assume I know exactly what you’re going through, and I ensure that my background or experiences never overshadow yours. Your voice is always at the center of our work and I try to ensure that the skills you develop here are connected with what feels right for you.

In our very first session, I work to make sure you feel secure and safe enough to share your experiences with me. This means meeting you where you are at and pacing our work together to help you recognize the quiet challenges that affect your inner peace and act as barriers to living peacefully. I honor all parts of your experience and make sure that you feel empowered to speak up if you ever feel uncomfortable, afraid, or stressed about your care. Using tailored techniques from ACT, DBT, holistic, and humanistic approaches, I support you in finding clarity and empowerment that allows you to live your life to the fullest.
