East West Therapy and Wellness

MA, LMFT

Clients I Work With

I help high-achieving women who are stressed, overwhelmed, or burnt out. My clients are typically navigating anxiety, life changes, career challenges, relationship problems, depression, maternal mental health, or BIPOC concerns. As a BIPOC woman, I am focused on culturally competent care for those I serve.

Approach

My work is authentic, empowering, challenging, collaborative, and solution-focused. Using a variety of methods, I encourage self-awareness, growth, and change. I'm also trained in EMDR (an evidence-based practice for trauma). I promote mindfulness-based methods and holistic healing in a safe therapeutic space.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

Hi! I’m Kassandra Bishop, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I hold a Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Touro University, a Master of Arts from the University of Arizona, and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Minnesota. As a Pisces sun, Capricorn moon, and Taurus rising, clients often describe me as grounded, calm, and intuitive - with a mix of candor and creativity. After years in corporate marketing and sales, I left burnout behind to pursue more meaningful work through psychotherapy. I founded East West Therapy & Wellness to offer a more honest + holistic approach to mental health - guiding others on a path of grounding and growth, rooted in empathy, self-awareness, and self-care.

More About My Practice

I believe in comprehensive treatment, shown through my focus on whole-person wellness and the marriage of Eastern + Western philosophies. I may refer clients to community connections offering yoga, meditation, sauna, acupuncture, massage, chiropractic care, energy work, functional medicine, western medicine, etc.
