Cassidy Karlin, Staff Intern
“Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion”
Welcome
Hi, I’m Cassidy. I’m a Pre-Licensed Professional at Luminary Solutions and a Clinical Mental Health Counseling graduate student at DePaul University. My work is guided by parts work founded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles, which means I believe every part of you has a story worth hearing. In therapy, all of your parts are welcome, especially the ones that feel confusing, overwhelming, or hard to share. I don’t see myself as someone here to “fix” you. Instead,
I bring curiosity, compassion, and a touch of humor to help you reconnect with yourself and your story. Together, we’ll work in a collaborative and empowering way
-
We all experience pain, but you don’t have to carry it alone. Therapy is a space where you can give yourself permission to stop pushing it down, and instead listen with compassion to the parts of you that have gone unheard. That’s where true healing begins.

I am trained in parts work and informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles. My approach is collaborative, empowering, and grounded in curiosity, especially for those navigating trauma, life transitions, and the complexity of being human.
