I bring a diverse clinical background that includes work in child welfare, family therapy, trauma-informed care, and supporting survivors of sexual and physical assault. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Widener University and completed 3,200 hours of clinically supervised experience toward earning my LCSW license. My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I regularly incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help clients build practical coping skills, process difficult experiences, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Even after 2 decides of supporting people, I'm even more inspired by those that seek support. I sincerely believe in the likelihood of improving.

Después de más de una década de análisis sobre los procesos terapéuticos, creo fielmente en que cada ser humano tiene la capacidad y el potencial para hacerse cargo de cada asunto en su vida. Sin embargo, en ocasiones las personas necesitan apoyo cuando se encuentran en medio de una situación difícil. Me ofrezco como facilitador para ayudar a quienes lo necesiten a descubrir o desarrollar sus capacidades para entender el problema, encontrar maneras de solucionarlo y desarrollar las acciones necesarias para que la situación mejore y puedan continuar adelante. En especial, apoyo a personas que enfrentan ansiedad y/o estrés, transiciones de vida (separaciones, pérdidas, estudios universitarios, etc.) y/o traumas (EMDR). Apoyo especialmente a adultos(as) jóvenes (18 a 39 años) y adultos(as) de mediana edad (40 a 65 años); estudiantes universitarios(as), atletas, estudiantes-atletas, hispanohablantes, parejas y familias.

I specialize in trauma-informed care for survivors of trauma including sexual assault, domestic violence, and sex trafficking.

With over 20 years of clinical experience, I work alongside individuals from young adulthood through the golden years — meeting you exactly where you are. I believe deeply in your capacity to grow, heal, and thrive. My approach is grounded in humanistic principles, honoring your unique background, culture, and lived experience. Together, we'll explore what empowerment and self-efficacy look like for you — not as isolated goals, but as part of the rich web of relationships and community that shape who you are. I take a whole-person perspective, caring for your mental, emotional, and physical well-being as one connected whole. This is a collaborative, affirming space where you will always feel heard, respected, and valued.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 15 years of nursing experience, with the majority of my career spent in the emergency department. That experience has shaped me into a warm, direct, and nonjudgmental provider who understands that people often seek help during some of the most overwhelming moments of their lives.

I work with adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, mood instability, overwhelming stress, and substance use. I believe mental health care should help you make sense of what you’re experiencing without leaving you feeling more overwhelmed.

I became a psychiatric provider because I wanted to help people quiet the crowded mind. Mental health challenges can make everything feel louder and harder to manage. My goal is to help you understand what may be contributing to how you feel, explore your treatment options, and develop a plan that feels manageable and individualized to you. I want treatment to create more clarity and more room for you to live your life.

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner who has worked across outpatient psychiatry, private practice, and long-term care. That range has shaped how I approach mental health: I believe every person's situation is unique, and I don't come in with a preset agenda. You can expect honesty, transparency, and a genuine commitment to understanding what you need. I'm building this practice on integrity, and my goal is to make sure you always know what's happening with your care and why.

I'm Cassi Pinder, the EMDR specialist helping people thrive after trauma. I am trained as a Professional Counselor. During my academic training, in addition to my degree, I am EMDR trained. After my academic training, I started working at MeadowWood Behavioral Hospital, an acute psychiatric unit. I worked with adolescents, substance abuse, and adult clients. I have worked with the Kent County Health Department implementing substance abuse prevention programs in middle and high schools. I believe in the old proverb "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". Since 2016, I have been working with the Community Behavioral Health providing services in an outpatient setting.
