Cassandra Trower, BACP

Cassandra Trower is a counsellor with six years' experience helping people navigate stressful and painful life moments. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Cassandra offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can be heard and begin to make sense of what they are facing.

She works with individuals who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed or confused. People come to her about stress, relationship worries, depression, grief and major life changes. Cassandra also supports those coping with chronic illness, caregiving strain, compassion fatigue and the ongoing effects of trauma and abuse.

Cassandra draws on a small set of approaches that are adapted to each person. Client-centred ways of working put the person's experience at the heart of sessions and focus on being listened to. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationships shape current patterns, especially around intimacy and abandonment worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, often shortened to CBT, is used when practical changes to thinking and behaviour are helpful. She blends these methods to suit the individual, choosing tools that match the person's goals and pace.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and collaborative. Cassandra encourages clear goal-setting and checks progress along the way. To start, people use the site Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to the therapist's availability.

How these approaches shape online work

Cassandra uses client-centred work to make sure the person's experience leads the session. This means the counsellor listens deeply, reflects what is said and helps people name their concerns before choosing next steps.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships influence current patterns around intimacy, abandonment and communication. This can help with relationship struggles and recurring emotional responses.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used when clearer links between thoughts, feelings and actions are useful. CBT offers straightforward exercises to try between sessions to test new ways of thinking or behaving.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work together with the person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. That discussion guides whether sessions focus more on listening, relationship patterns or practical strategies.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time and maintain continuity of care when life is unpredictable. Some people prefer shorter check-ins for brief support, while others use regular sessions for deeper work; Cassandra can help decide what will fit best.
