Cassondra DeLuce Jankowski, LCSW

Cassondra DeLuce Jankowski is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and related concerns. She brings a calm, straightforward style and focuses on practical steps families and individuals can use right away. Her direct approach aims to ease daily strain and make overwhelming moments more manageable.

She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of South Carolina in 2018 and has seven years of clinical experience, including hospital settings. Early work included roles supporting children, adolescents, and young adults. That background shaped how she approaches crisis situations and complex emotional needs.

Cassondra has considerable experience addressing eating and body image issues. She has applied family-focused methods in higher levels of care and in outpatient work to help caregivers and young people navigate recovery and mealtime challenges. She also supports people coping with OCD symptoms, self-harm behaviors, behavioral regulation difficulties, and trauma.

Her methods draw from cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior ideas, acceptance and commitment ideas, and cognitive processing ideas. In sessions she blends tools from these approaches to match each person’s needs. The work often includes skill building, emotion management, and addressing unhelpful thinking patterns.

Cassondra aims to create an open, empathetic space where parents and individuals can talk honestly about worries. She helps clients set small goals, try new strategies between sessions, and measure progress over time. Those who want to start are guided through a clear intake and scheduling process.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Dialectical behavior ideas focus on teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These are taught through step-by-step practice and homework, which can be reviewed and adjusted in follow-up sessions. This approach helps when strong emotions or intense stress interfere with daily life.

Cognitive behavioral ideas target thinking patterns and behavior. Sessions involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying small behavioral experiments. This method is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Cognitive processing ideas address trauma-related thoughts and beliefs. The work helps people make sense of difficult experiences and reduce the ways those memories affect everyday functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cassondra will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts plans as progress is tracked and as life circumstances change.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow quicker follow-ups after a difficult event. It can also let people choose quieter times, avoid camera use when needed, or schedule shorter check-ins between in-depth sessions.
