Meet Dr. Cassandra Altenor

A safe space to grow and heal.

Are you looking for a safe space to grow and heal? I'm prepared to help you peel back the layers to get to the root of your pain and conflicts.

Dr. Cassandra Altenor

The first step is awareness and the second step is courage — which is what landed you here today. You are heading in the right direction. Whether you are striving to do self-work or looking to build a better connection in your relationships, this is where you can achieve your desired goals.

I have extensive experience providing therapy to individuals needing help with motivation, depression, grief, anxiety, parenting, and adolescent counseling. My therapeutic approaches are tailored to meet your individual needs.

I am extremely passionate about pouring into the cups of others. My empathetic, straightforward, and down-to-earth approach allows me to build a strong rapport with the individuals I work with. I provide a confidential and non-judgmental space for you to explore and process your thoughts and feelings.

This may be your first time seeking therapy, or you may have engaged in therapy before. Either way, you may still feel uncertain about starting the journey. Go ahead — take the next step.

Her Story

Faith, family & the courage to begin again.

I am an ordained Minister and an author. Living a healthy life does not only include taking care of your physical body — taking time to invest in your mental and emotional health can lead to personal growth, great change, and a new perspective on life.

My goal is to assist my clients with restoring their mental and emotional well-being so they can function as healthy individuals in their relationships, families, and communities. I also enjoy mentoring young teenage girls and boys in my community, and conducting workshops on Self-Esteem and Self-Love.

I am a mother to a wonderful son named Will, and the author of my first published book, “I've Got My Joy Back,” which I wrote after overcoming grief and depression in 2021.
