Relationship Therapy

with Cassandra Falby, LMFT

for people who want to change.

HOW IT WORKS

The 2023 study found that when one or both partners repeatedly avoid difficult conversations, it can lead to negative feelings about the relationship and activate the body’s fight-or-flight response. This often escalates tension and makes resolving issues even harder.

This program and counseling are designed to help couples break this cycle. Let me show you how we can work together to create a healthier, more connected relationship…

Cassandra Falby, LMFT

Hey there, I'm Cassandra Falby, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Feel free to use pronouns they or she when referring to me. My online practice is based on the unceded Chochenyo Ohlone Land (San Francisco Bay Area). I bring a unique blend of experiences to my practice as a Caribbean American of African descent and a genderqueer femme.

My personal and professional journeys include creative tech environments, various non-profit therapeutic settings, and community cancer care. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with couples to address unhelpful relationship dynamics, broken trust, identity exploration, chronic illness, and neurotype differences.

In my work with couples, my approach incorporates Gottman Method, Attachment Theory, and some IFS principles. In sessions, I strive to create a collaborative environment, utilizing your relationship's strengths in service of your larger goals.

I firmly believe that everyone deserves the chance to heal and grow. I'd be honored to support your relationship's unique journey (think of me as a warmer, more personable Siri). If you want to see what working together might look like, click the button below to schedule a consultation.

you got questions?

We have answers!

  • I've never done relationship therapy before. What can I expect?

We will have an initial session where I listen to and learn about who you are as a couple and what your challenges are. I will meet with you individually to understand your experiences of the relationship. Then we will create a plan that focuses on the areas you’d like to address.

  • When can I schedule sessions?

Sessions are available Mondays through Thursdays, in the afternoons and evenings.

  • Do you accept insurance?

I do not accept insurance. However, if your insurance allows you to see out-of-network providers, I can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance carrier for reimbursement.

  • How long do sessions last?

The length of each session is 75 minutes.

  • Are sessions online or in-person?

At this time, all sessions are held online using a HIPAA-compliant telehealth (video) platform. There may be opportunities for in-person weekend intensive sessions in the future.
