About Cassandra

Cassandra Tordosinsky is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 13 years of experience helping people through hard moments. She believes talking with a counselor can make a real difference, whether the concern feels small or overwhelming. Cassandra aims to listen, validate feelings, and offer practical steps forward.

Her work emphasizes a person-centered approach that puts the client's needs and choices first. Sessions focus on building from individual strengths and finding solutions that fit each person’s life. Cassandra draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, to help people change patterns that cause distress.

People come to her with many issues, including stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and aging and geriatric issues. She also supports people dealing with body image, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and career or life transitions.

Cassandra describes her style as nonjudgmental and practical. She helps clients set clear goals and uses straightforward tools to meet them. The pace and focus are shaped by what each person needs and prefers.

Outside of clinical work she runs Authentic Living Counseling as a small business. She invites people to explore therapy as a way to make steady changes, reduce distress, and move toward the life they want.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, life transitions, and managing long-term concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to change them; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, offering empathetic listening and support while clients decide the direction and pace of change.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferred way of working. This might mean combining ACT with CBT skills or leaning into a person-centered stance for emotional processing.

Confirm the current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time, allowing easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and making shorter check-ins possible when needed. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and format choices to help make therapy a workable part of everyday life.
