Cassandra Monfared LMFT | Online Therapy in California

You want more than to simply get by.

Telehealth therapy for anxiety, depression & trauma. Warm, evidence-based care across California.

Hi, I'm Cassandra.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #150983) based in California. Before anything else, I care about the relationship we build together, one where you feel genuinely seen and heard.

I'm genuinely curious about people, and empathetic to what they're carrying. That's what drew me to this work, and it's still what I love most: watching someone process what's been weighing on them and work their way through it.

I'm easygoing and pretty down-to-earth. I laugh easily, ask a lot of questions because I actually want to know the answers, and believe therapy works best when it feels like a real conversation.

My work is warm and collaborative. We move at your pace, you always stay in the driver's seat, and I intentionally seek out and use the most effective, efficient, and powerful therapies available, committed to continuous learning to get you where you need to go.

If this sounds like the kind of space you're looking for, I'd love to hear from you.
