Cassandra Tordosinsky , LPC

Cassandra Tordosinsky is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who supports people navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, relationship concerns, and a wide range of life transitions. With a person-centered style, she prioritizes listening and validation so clients feel heard while exploring practical ways to move forward. Cassandra blends solution-focused work with evidence-based techniques to identify strengths, clarify goals, and build strategies that fit each person’s life.

She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and to develop skills for shifting unhelpful patterns. Her practice addresses issues across the lifespan and specialties include stress, grief, parenting challenges, intimacy and relationship struggles, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue. Cassandra also works with clients around attachment and abandonment issues, blended family dynamics, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and other co-occurring challenges.

As a small business owner of Authentic Living Counseling, Cassandra offers services through that practice and through this platform. Her approach is grounded in respect and nonjudgmental support, and she aims to help people move toward meaningful change and improved emotional well-being. She is accepting new clients and provides care in English.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It is useful for stress, anxiety, avoidance patterns, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful change rather than eliminating discomfort.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience and emphasizes empathic listening, validation, and collaboration. This approach supports self-discovery, emotional processing, and building confidence to make changes that fit individual goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and provides practical skills for shifting unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day challenges where new coping strategies are needed.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Cassandra works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to determine which methods best match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as work progresses.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit mental health care into busy schedules, manage transportation or mobility limits, and maintain continuity of support during life changes. These options help clients access consistent therapy that adapts to their routines and needs.
