About Cassandra
Cassandra Trower is a BACP-registered counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression and major life changes. She frames sessions around each person’s needs and goals. Conversations aim to be judgement-free and straightforward so people can talk about what matters most.
Cassandra draws on a small set of approaches to meet different needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. She pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns and uses client-centred ways of working to keep the focus on the person.
How Cassandra works
Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when practical thinking and behaviour changes are helpful. Sessions are guided by a collaborative relationship. Cassandra spends time listening first, then uses tools that fit the person’s pace and situation.
People often find the chance to reflect on patterns and try new responses useful when coping feels hard. She supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, grief, family and parenting concerns, intimacy and communication difficulties, and issues linked to ADHD, autism and attachment. Cassandra also addresses long-term health and caregiving stress, chronic pain and the emotional impact of serious illness.
Her style is calm and direct. She explains options plainly and helps people set realistic goals for change. If someone wants to explore how therapy might help, the first step is a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling a session.

How Cassandra’s approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. Online sessions using this approach focus on noticing those patterns and trying different ways to connect and respond in relationships, which can help with intimacy or abandonment worries.Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the session. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what is said and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach suits people who want a steady, supportive space to make sense of feelings.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behaviour changes. In online work this can mean setting simple tasks between sessions and reviewing what worked to reduce anxiety or low mood.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful based on the person’s goals, history and preferences. This is a shared process and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and use visual tools. Phone sessions work well when less bandwidth or a hands-free option is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or moments when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and health demands while still working through meaningful issues with a registered BACP professional.
