Authentic & Holistic Mental Health Care in OKC & Edmond

Hi! I’m Kassandra Bishop, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. Pisces sun, Capricorn moon, Taurus rising - my clients find me a blend of grounded, calm, candid; and compassionate, creative, intuitive. As a former marketing and sales executive who was burnt out and tired of feeling like my work wasn’t making a difference, I left the hustle of corporate America in search of something deeper. My passion for helping others and all things health + wellness led to this humble calling as a psychotherapist.

I founded East West Therapy & Wellness with the intention of shifting the conversation in mental health care away from a hyper-clinical mindset to one focused on holistic health, with the integration of complementary alternative methods.

I believe that a more honest + holistic approach to mental health can better prepare us for the lifelong journey of experiencing the world we live in - toward a path of grounding and growth, rooted in empathy, self-awareness, and self-care.

I gained my Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Touro University in Los Angeles, CA. Additionally, I have a Master of Arts degree from the University of Arizona, and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Minnesota.

I’ve worked in private practice in Las Vegas, NV; small town Iowa; and now in Oklahoma City, OK. For those seeking services for trauma or general distressing memories and experiences, I am trained in EMDR.

Along with formal psychotherapy education/training, I am a Reiki Level II Practitioner, and have personally studied and participated in countless forms of alternative and holistic healing for many years.

My approach blends mindfulness with a humanistic and client-led mindset (adding in a dash of humor); often working from CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), Strengths, Psychodynamic, and Mindfulness-Based perspectives. I am authentic, compassionate, direct, and solution-oriented.

I assist clients in validating, understanding, and accepting themselves in order to increase awareness and change thoughts and behaviors that are affecting their mental health. We will work collaboratively to help you learn about yourself, build on your strengths, and achieve your goals.

I am grateful to serve multiple communities through in-person counseling sessions in Oklahoma City + Edmond and via online Telehealth sessions throughout all of Oklahoma and Iowa.
