A native of Shelby, North Carolina, Min. Bell-Gash accepted Jesus Christ as her personal savior and was baptized at age 12, at the Light Oak Baptist Church by the Rev Johnny Browner. She has always had a zeal for the Lord and was licensed as a Minster of the Gospel in November 2007, under Rev. Zeno T. Borders. She has worked in Christian Education at Faith Missionary Baptist Church under Rev. Borders and later Rev. Dr. Anthony Negbenebor. Her unique gift of teaching and preaching has manifested itself in Sunday School and Bible Study, but has also produced specialized workshops and retreats for women, young adults, and youth. Her leadership conferences have generated new opportunities for her to consult with organizations in their strategic planning and development. She believes that empowering other organizations to provide care extends the available resources needed by so many.
Drawn to the marginalized in our society, Min. Bell-Gash, became an entrepreneur to advocate on their behalf. Her philosophy of going “beyond the walls”, propelled her to gain the necessary academics and training to provide holistic solutions. Earning her B.S. in Psychology minoring in Sociology in 1995 from the Gardner Web University; she continued and earned her M.Div, and MEd. respectively. As a continuous learner, she did not stop there, but has garnered many certifications in the mental health counseling field and continues to study.
One could see the “handwriting on the wall” because this has been her life work for over 15 years. Chaplin, Therapist, Mental Health Liaison, and Crisis Counselor are just a few of the titles she’s held; Caro Mont Hospital, Cleveland Regional Medical Center, Broughton, and Kings Mountain Hospital represent some of the places she’s practiced.
While titles and places are important, Min. Bell-Gash asserts that it’s the nameless individuals whose lives have been impacted by the services that she provides that really matter, and that continue to be her focus. Her “multifaceted” approach extends the services she offers for individuals and families, and is the added depth required to meet the spiritual and mental needs of the communities she serve.
She is currently CEO of Life Provisions with chapters in North and South Carolina.
She is a proud mother, and daughter and enjoys times with her family. She humbly acknowledges and accepts her role as a citizen of the Kingdom of God.

Cassandra is the best! She's a great listener, has a great sense of humor and gives awesome responses to my concerns. At times I really feel like I would be lost without her helping me to work through issues much more quickly than I would alone. I love knowing she's there any time I need support. She's highly recommended.

From the first session, Cassandra made me feel very comfortable. She is a great listener. I like how she provides me with coping tools to navigate through grief. While I started therapy for grief counseling the sessions are helping me in every area of my life. Cassandra is the best.

Cassandra Gash is able to incorporate my faith into my sessions and is very knowledgeable about the Bible and how it can apply to dealing with my anxiety and depression. I greatly appreciate that because I've never been able to find a therapist who could or would help me make that connection that is so important in my life as a Christian woman. She is down to earth and makes me feel very comfortable so that its easy to discuss what I'm dealing with. I am so grateful that I was matched with her and it has been a game changer for me after 30+ years of struggling with Anxiety and Depression and countless therapist, group sessions, books and medications.

Cassandra has been such a blessing to help me align my life and priorities. She has made me extremely comfortable and I look forward to speaking with her all the time. She’s patient, listens and always communicate things to me so I understand what she’s overall trying to explain to me. My time with her has made everything so much better. I’m so glad I get to work with Cassandra and I realize how important having someone like Cassandra is to one’s well being. Atleast for me, I’m starting to feel like I’m getting my life back.

Cassandra is amazing! I have seen other therapists before who don't fully listen. They assume things and make comments about things that I never said. Cassandra listened to me and gave me a new perspective on what is going on in my life. I left our first call hopeful and excited. I no longer feel stressed about my situation. Cassandra is so kind and you can tell she loves what she does. I felt very comfortable sharing my life with her in our first session. I am so thankful that I got paired with her!

Cassandra has been extremely helpful since the very first session we’ve had together. I never truly realized how helpful therapy can be until going through these sessions and discussions with her. I’ve had very positive results after every session and have been able to apply what we’ve discussed in my life and it has been extremely helpful for me. Thank you, Cassandra!

Cassandra is attentive, she knows when to listen and when to advise. She doesn’t judge but understands and has a lot of positive energy that’s infectious. Even if we don’t tackle any particular issues during the session, just talking to her makes me feel better. Cassandra is also very funny, the worst things seem to be easier to deal with.

Cassandra is intuitive and effective.
She has a clear understanding of my needs, and has helped me to understand the complex challenges that I have been facing for quite some time, in relatively simple terms.
Moreover, she has presented me with viable solutions, and she responds to me in a timely manner.

Though Cassandra’s background is Christian, very different than my own, she offers very insightful and perspective opening commentary, She understands my concerns and helps me to find more empathy as well as strength to create boundaries.
