About Cassandra

Dr. Cassandra Guerrero centers her work in Internal Family Systems alongside cognitive and person-centered methods to help clients build practical coping and problem-solving skills.

Background and approach

She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with ten years of clinical experience and emphasizes a nonjudgmental, collaborative approach that values active listening, respect, and compassion.

Her practice supports people facing a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, stress, bipolar disorder, addictions, grief, relationship and family conflict, intimacy challenges, parenting difficulties, and issues with self-esteem and anger. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, codependency, domestic violence, and blended family or divorce-related adjustment.

She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and client-centered principles to create tailored plans that fit each person’s needs and goals. Prospective clients are invited to begin by completing a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability to explore whether her style and methods are the right fit.

How IFS and ACT Translate to Online Therapy

Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps people notice and dialogue with the different parts of themselves to reduce inner conflict and promote self-leadership; this approach can be useful for trauma responses, intense emotions, and patterns that feel stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and building psychological flexibility by using mindfulness and committed action to address anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to relational patterns formed early in life and supports rebuilding supported ways of relating, which can help with intimacy, relationship strain, and caregiver-related stress.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process and is explored collaboratively. The therapist will work with each client to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as insight and progress develop.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase accessibility and flexibility for varied schedules and circumstances. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations and allow clients to use modalities that suit their communication style and daily life.
