About Cassie
Cassie Maxwell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in Louisiana. She has 12 years of experience and offers calm, straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, mood shifts, and parenting strains. She acknowledges how hard it is to ask for help and aims to meet people where they are in their life.
Cassie centers sessions on each person’s strengths and choices. She uses practical conversation and body-aware work to help people notice how stress shows up in daily life.
Background and approach
Sessions are paced to match individual needs and can include problem-solving, breathing and grounding skills, and short experiments to try between meetings. Her work is informed by trauma-aware and multicultural perspectives. She makes space for people from different backgrounds to share what matters to them without judgement.
Cassie also addresses concerns such as addiction, sleep and eating problems, intimacy issues, career strain, and ADHD-related challenges. Therapy with Cassie can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. She will talk through what format fits best and how to use it to keep momentum between visits.
Practical steps and small changes are common goals in her sessions. If someone is in immediate crisis, Cassie refers them to local emergency services or the 988 crisis line for urgent care. For non-urgent needs, she invites people to take the first step and explore whether her style fits their goals.
How Somatic and Practical Methods Work Online
Somatic-informed work helps people notice how emotions show up in the body and learn simple ways to ease physical tension. This often includes tracking breath, stance, and small body cues to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead so sessions reflect their priorities and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors and offers small experiments to change unhelpful habits and moods.Finding the right mix of methods is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. Together they decide whether to lean into body-aware exercises, talk-focused work, or skill-building from CBT and then adjust as things change.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is useful for guided exercises and face-to-face conversation, while phone and text options offer more flexibility between activities. These choices help people keep continuity of care and practice new skills where they live and work.
