I look to help you identify your strengths and utilize them so that you can achieve your desired outcomes. My approach is to utilize multidimensional psychodynamic tools based upon your life course and inherent difficulties. In conjunction with the client, goals will be developed and guidance will be provided in order to achieve the optimal short term gains and long term objectives. Change is achieved through solution focused and task based theories to help achieve change. These tools can be particularly helpful for those coping with negative thought patterns, depression, anxiety, developmental differences, executive functioning difficulties and challenges associated with trauma and transitions. My practice has entailed work with a wide variety of individuals and focused upon the needs of each person. I have also engaged in practice with individuals with autism, those impacted by a wide range of environmental challenges as well as those having difficulty making life transitions. I have also participated in family based crisis management, helped families develop a range of techniques to improve relationships with their significant others and acted as a conduit between family members coping with trauma. I live with my wife, daughters and two dogs and have a passion for helping others. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you have your aspirations align with your actions!

Min. Cassandra Bell-Gash M.Div., MEd., LCMHC, LPC 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.

I was licensed as a professional counselor in July, 2000. I did my graduate work at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine and in 2006 was awarded their Graduate Alumni of The Year Award. I performed my internship at the WJB Dorn VA Medical Center in Columbia SC. I am also a veteran of the US Navy Nuclear Submarine Service and hold a Meritorious Decoration from them.

I became a therapist in 2019. I studied at the University of South Carolina for my undergraduate studies, majoring in psychology. My master's degree is in Counseling Education with a focus on Marriage and Family Therapy. For the last 6 years, I have worked with individuals, couples, and families. The purpose of therapy is to provide a supportive and collaborative space for growth, healing, and self-understanding. My goal is to help clients develop greater emotional awareness, strengthen relationships, and foster a deeper sense of authenticity and balance within themselves and others. My therapeutic approach is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment Theory, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). These approaches focus on understanding emotional experiences, identifying underlying needs, and exploring how past and present relationships influence current patterns of behavior and connection. Sessions are designed to help clients move from reactivity or self-criticism toward emotional regulation, self-compassion, and healthy communication. In individual therapy, the work centers on exploring emotions, inner parts, and relational patterns that shape one’s sense of self. The overall aim is to create lasting change through emotional insight, self-awareness, and relational healing.

Do you love your child deeply, but feel like you’re always getting it wrong? You try to connect, but it keeps turning into tension, distance, or guilt. Does your child struggle with low confidence and a lack of independence? Many of the families I work with are made up of loving but burnt-out parents who feel disconnected from their child — and children who are struggling to feel understood. I’m passionate about helping families who want to reconnect but feel stuck. My approach combines evidence-based methods with a deep respect for each family’s unique cultural background, values, and traditions.. Having lived in multiple countries—including Uzbekistan, Egypt, Pakistan, and Japan I bring a deep respect for cultural differences and the unique experiences of every family. I offer therapy in English and Russian and am especially passionate about helping individuals navigate life transitions, mood-related concerns, and cultural identity. I take time to understand the cultural context you live in and adapt my work to honor your perspectives, strengths, and ways of relating. When helpful, I incorporate play and art practices into therapy, creating a space that feels safe, engaging, and inviting for children to express themselves freely. Whether I work with you, your child, or both, my goal is to help your family communicate more effectively, reduce tension, and strengthen bonds. Parenting doesn’t have to feel like a struggle — together we can build a more connected home where everyone feels heard and valued. If this is the family therapy you’re looking for, I welcome you to get in touch!
