Hi there, I’m Dr. Cassidy!
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the mental load of motherhood, exhausted from trying to do it all just right, or determined to break the cycles you were raised with, you’re in the right place.
I’m a California-based Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I offer individual and couples therapy for postpartum anxiety, parenting triggers, relationship challenges, grief, and trauma. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in the belief that you don’t have to hold it all together to be worthy of support!
Whether you’re carrying unspoken resentment, old pain, or just the weight of trying to be everything for everyone, I offer a space where you can exhale, get curious about what’s underneath, and reconnect with the version of you that feels most aligned.
And I’m not doing this work alone: our team now includes a New York and Nevada licensed therapist, and we’re accepting new clients from CA, NY, and NV.
You don’t have to navigate this alone! We're here to hold space for your healing and your becoming.
coaching for therapists.
If you’re a clinician I’m so glad you found yourself here! The work of a therapist can be isolating, and I hope together we can build support and community. I offer consultation for therapists and coaches who are looking to find their voice and build modern clinical practices.

How to Stop Your Reaction Before It Starts... and Become a Calmer, Happier, More Connected Parent.
Motherhood is messy. Mom Needs a Moment is for the moms who find themselves losing their temper more than they’d like. Or shutting down when things feel too loud or too much. Or who are tired of snapping, spiraling, or second-guessing themselves … and want to understand why this keeps happening, and how to change it. Dr. Cassidy invites mothers to see that much of what they carry didn’t start with them, and that they have the power to choose what continues and what ends.
