Cassandra Potts

Cassandra Potts is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Colorado with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem. Cassandra supports people wondering what comes next after big life changes and those feeling stuck in work or relationships.

She focuses on concrete problems such as attachment wounds, abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, blended family friction, and communication breakdowns. Cassandra also addresses the emotional fallout from divorce, separation, and fertility concerns. First responder issues, coping with disasters, and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder are additional areas she helps people navigate.

Her approach uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to make sessions practical and understandable. In sessions she talks through current problems, examines patterns that sustain them, and works with people to try new ways of responding. She draws on methods suited to trauma, mood, and relationship concerns to guide those steps.

Cassandra has substantial experience with family-of-origin issues, forgiveness work, and the emotional effects of adoption and foster care. She helps people sort through guilt, shame, and attachment patterns that affect daily life and relationships. Her background includes long-term clinical practice in Colorado.

People interested in working together start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. The practice uses a cancellable subscription model for sessions, with costs that vary by location.

Evidence-based approaches and online work

Cassandra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques geared toward trauma and mood concerns. Trauma-focused methods help people process distressing memories and reduce the emotional charge tied to them, which can be useful after abuse, disaster, or other upsetting events. Approaches for mood and anxiety focus on recognizing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing alternative responses to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Cassandra will work with each person to clarify goals, review what has worked or not worked before, and try methods that fit the issue and the person’s preferences. She adjusts strategies over time based on response and practical results.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make sessions possible when someone is balancing work or family demands and needs flexible timing rather than a long commute.
