About me

Hello Everyone! My Name is Kassandra Boortz and I am a Marital and Family Therapist licensed in California . I earned my Masters degree from Loma Linda University, in 2013 and received my Licensure in 2018. I am passionate in bringing empowerment and insight to the world of those who struggle to move forward. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and explore negative patterns that are holding them back. My journey has led me to work successfully dealing with a wide range of issues such as Anxiety, anger issues, self esteem, relationship problems and depression. I have had the opportunity to gain experience in many different settings such as private clinics, a Womens shelter, and schools. My approach to therapy is un-biased, client-centered, and collaborative. I value diversity and its impacts and utilizes a Gestalt and CBT therapy approach, along with emphasizing self-compassion. I have advanced training with Domestic Violence and Moral reconation Therapy (MRT). I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I welcome you to start this journey to healing and to empower you to move beyond your barriers.

I look forward to working with you!

Kassandra is one of the best therapists I've worked with. Kassandra is incredibly easy to talk to, and works with you and your goals with compassion, patience and empathy. She's a great listener, and is so skilled at picking up on the little things you may say and not think twice about that end up revealing so much more about what's going on inside. I am so fortunate that we matched.
