Edward Rindler

Therapist

My path to becoming a counselor was shaped in part by my own life experiences. Navigating divorce, raising children in a divorced household, and working with a counselor myself helped me develop greater emotional awareness and better understand how our experiences can influence the way we think, feel, and respond to the world around us.

I have also learned to better understand my own experience with ADHD and how it has influenced different areas of my life. ADHD is part of my experience, but it does not define who I am. That journey has reinforced my belief that understanding ourselves including our experiences, strengths, challenges, and differences can help us grow without reducing who we are to a diagnosis or label.

These experiences contributed to my decision to become a counselor and helped shape my passion for supporting people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, relationships, and major life transitions.

Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) providing telehealth across Ohio, I offer a warm, collaborative, and practical space for adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, OCD, and major life transitions. Drawing on evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and ACT—along with a touch of humor and authenticity—I focus on honoring the strengths you already possess while helping you build effective tools for growth. In our work together, you can expect an empowering environment where you feel truly heard and supported. Christian faith integration is available upon request.

I'm Kassandra, a Licensed Independent Social Worker trained at Case Western Reserve

University. My clinical foundation was built doing crisis intervention and specialized

trauma work with survivors of sexual assault, child abuse, and sex trafficking before

I became independently licensed. That experience isn't a line on a resume. It's the reason

I can sit with the hardest things clients bring in without needing them to minimize,

manage, or explain themselves first. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults

individually and with couples. I'm explicitly LGBTQIA+-affirming and have experience

with transgender and identity-related concerns. I offer telehealth across Ohio and accept

insurance through Headway.
