Cazzandra Bell

Cazzandra is a psychologist at OpenUp. With a non-judgmental approach, Cazzandra strongly believes that the therapeutic alliance is the foundation of change. It is important to her that she creates a safe space for you to open up, and that trust is developed between you both throughout the sessions. Confidentiality, your progress, and your trust are her top priorities. She is passionate and invested in her clients finding the strategies that best support their change and growth.

Throughout your sessions with Cazzandra, you will work together to identify both your challenges and strengths, defining clear and achievable goals.
