Cassandra Potts , LPC

Cassandra Potts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 20 years of experience helping people through stressful and painful times. She focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and self-esteem. Cassandra often supports people coping with major life changes and the emotional fallout from loss or conflict.

She uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help clients manage symptoms and rebuild daily routines. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Cassandra listens for patterns that lead to repeating pain, such as attachment wounds or control issues, and helps people try different ways of responding.

Cassandra has worked with people facing abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, blended family dynamics, fertility struggles, and difficult family-of-origin histories. She also brings experience with first responder stress, coping after disasters, and complex situations like domestic violence or divorce. These topics often appear alongside anxiety, mood changes, or trouble trusting others.

Her style is collaborative and respectful. She helps clients name what matters, set small goals, and practice new skills between sessions. Therapy may include short exercises, communication practice, and strategies for managing overwhelming feelings.

Cassandra offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. People who want to begin can use the site’s Start Therapy button, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approaches That Fit Your Life Online

Many clients benefit from a few core evidence-based approaches that Cassandra uses to guide sessions. One approach focuses on skills for managing intense emotions and anxiety, teaching simple breathing, grounding, and thought-labeling practices that help during overwhelming moments. Another approach looks at relationship and attachment patterns, helping people notice repeated interaction styles and try new ways of connecting that feel safer and clearer.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to understand their goals, symptoms, and daily demands, then recommend techniques to try. Together they track what helps and adjust methods as needed so work in sessions matches real-life needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful when visual cues and interactive exercises matter. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when fitting a short session into a busy day.
