You feel stuck & wonder if it will always be this hard.

You’re doing everything you can to hold it together, but under the surface you’re overwhelmed, disconnected, and tired of pretending everything’s fine.


You might be…


  • Feeling anxious, overthinking everything, and doubting yourself constantly. You wish you could just relax, but your mind won’t turn off.

  • Trying to show up for everyone else while running on empty. Burnout is catching up with you, and you’re exhausted from constantly doing, pleasing, or fixing.

  • Stuck in painful patterns with your partner. You love each other, but communication feels tense. You’re caught in repeating arguments and you’re not sure how to reconnect.

  • Feeling alone in your circumstances. Even when you’re with someone you love, it feels like you’re worlds apart. This leaves you feeling lonely and misunderstood.


Maybe you’ve tried talking it through, consuming self-help books & podcasts, or just pushing past it, but the same patterns keep showing up. You want things to change, yet it’s hard to know where to start.


I’m here to help.

Howdy! I’m Kassandra.

Feel like I just read your diary? If so, you’re in the right place.

Whether it’s tension in your relationship, constant overthinking, or the quiet ache of feeling unseen, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I work with women and committed couples who are ready to feel seen, heard, & valued. My clients are often self-aware, high-achieving, and deeply caring, but find themselves overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in cycles of overthinking, conflict, or people-pleasing.

Together, we’ll uncover what’s keeping you stuck, develop tools to shift unhelpful patterns, and create space for more confidence, clarity, and connection in your life and in your relationships.
