IT’S TIME TO INVEST IN YOURSELF.
CASSIE HOUF, LSCSW
You're here because you know there has to be a better way.
The feeling of being stuck is overwhelming. You're tired of feeling like you just can’t get to the place you want to be. You want to move in a forward direction. You want to get to a calmer more in control mindset.
You know that there has to be a better way to live your life. You deserve to experience what it’s like to be in charge of your life. You’re ready for the change! You’re done letting anxiety, fear, and worry run the show. There’s a better way.
You’re in the right spot.
How I work
At the core of my approach to therapy is a firm belief that every single person has the ability to achieve the outcome they deserve.
I’m Cassie, and I help adults with anxiety and OCD, just like you, get to a place in their life they can feel more comfortable. You have it in you, you just need the support to get there. I help my clients find control and stability by providing them with a safe place to better understand themselves and what they’re going through.
Many of today’s solutions for anxiety related symptoms are coping skills and relaxation techniques, which are great and important, don’t get me wrong! But these can seem to be a one size fits all, leading so many to feel like there’s something wrong with them when these interventions just don’t work.
There’s so much more that can be done! I know that your circumstances are unique. Each step we take is based on your specific needs, to give you the best possible outcome in the shortest amount of time. You have what it takes to become the boss of your thoughts and actions!
First, we examine your thoughts and feelings causing you to remain in a place you don’t want to be. Then, we create a plan specific for you and your desired outcome that will be most effective for you. Through our work together you will open doors to gain the skills and confidence you need to thrive.
HEre’s what I believe about therapy:
This isn't about becoming someone "different."
Say it with me! There’s nothing wrong with you. You are not broken. But you do deserve something more! You deserve to be the best version of yourself and have control of your thoughts, not be controlled by your thoughts.
The best investment you can make is in yourself.
You have goals. You have aspirations. You need to be the best version of yourself. The weight of being stuck in waves of anxiety and intrusive thoughts has you frozen in place. This ins’t going to fix itself. Invest in yourself and start enjoying the view!
You are inherently deserving of a healthy thriving life!
Imagine a life where you are in control! Not anxiety, not dread, not fear. The possibilities are endless. Take control. You can do this!
Get the support that’s right for you.
