About Cassandra

Dr. Cassandra Jackson-Smith is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 18 years of experience. She focuses on helping people untangle relationship struggles, rebuild self-esteem, and navigate career and life changes. Her work often covers issues such as jealousy, communication problems, blended family concerns, and body image. Her style is warm and collaborative. She aims to create a straightforward space where people can talk through what matters most to them. Sessions center on practical goals and steps that fit daily life. Dr. Jackson-Smith draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy guide shorter-term goal work and decisions. People often come for relationship repair, to work on career transitions, or to cope with major life shifts. She also supports those dealing with emptiness, family of origin issues, forgiveness, and finding life purpose. She offers services from Oklahoma and accepts clients internationally. Sessions proceed with open dialogue, goal setting, and collaborative planning so clients leave with concrete next steps.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Dr. Jackson-Smith uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's priorities, creating space for people to describe what matters most and set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, which can be practiced between sessions to improve everyday functioning. Motivational Interviewing supports people making changes by clarifying values and strengthening personal motivation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. The plan can change as progress is made, and different methods may be combined to meet a client's needs.

The biography indicates she offers virtual sessions; please confirm the current session options before booking.
