About
Cassandra Millen MSW, RSW
Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist Certified EFFT Therapist
As a person and family-centered therapist and a registered social worker in Napanee, I understand that your circumstances are uniquely yours, and your therapy should reflect this. I am a Certified EFFT Therapist, specializing in emotion-focused approaches. However, my expertise extends to a variety of emotion-focused, behavioral, and family therapies. I believe in an integrated approach to therapy, tailored to meet your individual needs.
I am a Psychotherapist and Registered Social Worker in Napanee, governed by the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. I have worked in both community and hospital-based settings and I specialize in working with eating disorders, trauma, family and relationship issues and emotion processing. I also work with individuals around anxiety, addictions, grief, self harm and general coping.
On a personal note, a few of my favourite things include spending time with my family, my morning coffee, playing hockey in the winter and golfing in the summer, reading and the cooler weather. If I wasn’t a therapist, I would have loved teaching.
Although therapy is not easy, with a supportive environment, you can work through the challenges that come with this journey. I strongly believe that awareness is power and I strive to create a safe and comfortable space that will lend itself kindly to creating self-awareness while making sense and learning to transform the emotional drivers to our thoughts and behaviours.
Therapy Approaches
Individual Therapy
Whether you are looking to process trauma, manage your emotions or work toward living by your value system, we will work together to develop and strengthen skills to achieve your goals.
Family Therapy
Drawing from attachment-based and emotion-focused family therapies, family therapy aims to improve communication, build trust and resolve conflict within the family system.
Supervision and Consultation
General supervision and consultation is available to clinicians and students. Keep in mind my training background is predominantly emotion focused, attachment and family therapy focused, trauma focused approaches and I am formally training in CBT, DBT, RO-DBT as well. I specialize in working with eating disorders, trauma and family therapies.
Let's Talk
The first step in therapy is talking. Let's find a time where we can meet and talk about what's on your mind.
