Geri Cassady is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She also supports those facing addiction, parenting challenges, intimacy-related concerns, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar mood swings, ADHD, and major life transitions. Geri writes in a direct, compassionate way and focuses on clear steps people can take to feel steadier day to day.

Geri draws on about nine years of counseling experience. She describes a person-focused style that looks at the whole of someone's life rather than isolating symptoms. Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative. Clients work on specific goals and real-world skills they can use between meetings.

Her practice blends Client-Centered methods with Cognitive Behavioral tools and narrative techniques. That means she listens for each person's story, helps spot patterns that cause problems, and teaches ways to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Solution-focused ideas are used to set short-term, achievable goals.

Geri has experience in community agency settings and independent practice. Her background includes work across public and independent sectors that informs how she supports people through transitions. She emphasizes empathy and clear communication when addressing family of origin issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and workplace stress.

People who choose Geri typically want practical coping skills, better communication, and relief from overwhelming emotions. She encourages a steady, step-by-step approach so progress feels manageable and meaningful.

How Geri Uses Therapy Models Online

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes understanding each person’s perspective. The therapist offers empathic listening and helps clients feel heard, which can make it easier to identify what needs to change. This approach is useful for relationship strain, low self-esteem, and grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches clear strategies to shift those patterns and is often used for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and impulsivity.

Narrative Therapy pays attention to the stories people tell about themselves. By reworking those stories, clients can reduce guilt, shame, and isolation and try new ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Geri will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. She may combine approaches and adjust them as work progresses so sessions stay useful and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats before booking since options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists and licensed professionals often help clients apply CBT skills, practice communication tasks, or reframe stories between meetings, so online sessions can still support practical, goal-focused progress.
