Cassie Holmes, LPC

Cassie Holmes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who uses a practical, collaborative style to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. She writes in plain terms and focuses on what matters most to each person. Cassie emphasizes working together so the client’s goals shape the work. She welcomes people navigating parenting, LGBT issues, bipolar concerns, and young adult challenges, and she also addresses caregiver stress and related family concerns.

She draws from a mix of approaches that match the situation, including cognitive behavioral strategies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, motivational interviewing, client-centered work, and narrative ideas. Sessions tend to be empathic and goal-focused, with attention to what clients can try between meetings. Cassie aims to make steps clear and doable rather than overwhelming.

Cassie earned a master’s degree in Human Relations from the University of Oklahoma and has six years of clinical experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. That background includes work with depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and family-of-origin issues. Her experience informs a flexible way of working that adjusts as a person’s needs change.

She also pays attention to multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, and women’s issues. Cassie supports people recovering from sexual assault and domestic violence, and she assists those wanting to build self-love or work through forgiveness. The focus stays on practical steps clients can use in daily life.

If someone is trying to balance caregiving duties, manage substance use, or rebuild after trauma, Cassie helps set clear goals and small actions to move forward. The work is conversational, straightforward, and guided by what the client wants to accomplish.

How these approaches guide online therapy

Cassie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT is useful when someone wants to reduce avoidance and move toward a life they care about. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety or depression and to practice small behavior changes that improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy is another core part of her work, focused on listening closely and shaping the pace to match each person’s needs.

Finding the right approach usually happens together. Cassie collaborates with clients to choose which methods to try and adjusts the plan as goals and needs evolve. She frames therapy as a joint process where feedback guides next steps rather than a fixed prescription.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a break, avoiding travel time, or choosing audio-only options when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use these approaches to work on stress, caregiver strain, trauma recovery, and substance-related goals in ways that fit a client’s routine and preferences.
