Cassandra Black

Cassandra Black

Therapist

Virtual • California


I work with adults who want to better understand themselves, strengthen emotional resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. My style is warm, collaborative, and empowering — I believe you are the expert on your own life.

As a graduate of the University of Southern California, my training emphasized both clinical excellence and authentic human connection. I integrate CBT and DBT-informed approaches to help clients develop practical skills for managing emotions, navigating relationships, setting healthy boundaries, and shifting unhelpful thought patterns.

I was drawn to this work because I’ve seen how powerful self-awareness and skill-building can be in transforming not only how we cope, but how we experience ourselves and our relationships. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a grounded, supportive space where you feel truly seen — while also gently challenged to grow in ways that build confidence, clarity, and lasting self-trust.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Los Angeles, CA

Finding OCD therapists in Los Angeles starts with looking for the right training, not just a general mental health specialty. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a leading therapy approach for OCD, and some therapists have more direct ERP experience than others. If you’re looking for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, contamination fears, checking, reassurance seeking, or “pure O” symptoms, read therapist bios for clear mentions of OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

Los Angeles has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Hollywood, Koreatown, Silver Lake, Culver City, and the Westside, which can make the search harder to narrow. Some people prefer an office near home, work, or transit; others choose virtual sessions to expand their options across California. As you compare therapists, look at appointment times, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how specifically they describe OCD care. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of focus may differ from one who describes direct ERP training or a structured approach for obsessions and compulsions.

Therapy in Los Angeles can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can search for OCD therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, compare virtual and in-person availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
