Marielle Mathews; Owner of Delaware County Center for Psychological Services
Psychologist, PsyD, NCSP
I specialize in working with teens and young adults with anxiety, depression, and school avoidance. I now provide Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
As an adolescent or young adult, you might spend most of your day in school with a variety of feelings to manage. If you have trouble in school, you might hate where you are most of your day. The anxiety and depression make it all feel unmanageable. Maybe you are just realizing that you don’t have to live each day hating your life. Together, we can work on skills you need to take control of your feelings and improve your daily life.

Cassandre Charnel
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Are you depressed? Sad? Anxious? Or have you experienced trauma, abuse, relationship challenges or loss? Do you struggle with codependency? Do you have difficulty setting healthy boundaries? Do you want to build self-esteem and confidence? Have your attempts to create meaningful changes in your life been met, repeatedly with short term-success? Are you losing hope with the prospect of a prosperous meaningful future?
Hi! My name is Cassie, and I'm a Christian, faith-based therapist licensed and located in the sunny (and sometimes rainy!) state of Florida. The questions posed above speak to challenges many of us are regularly faced with, but may find it difficult to speak about. Instead, we may find ourselves harboring feelings of shame and guilt which blocks us from pursuing and receiving the help we need.
Well, here’s the good news! Therapy with me is conducted within a safe, judgment-free space, where I provide opportunities for you to face those challenges and express those feelings. . I believe in the power of faith to guide healing, and I am honored to walk alongside individuals who desire therapy that aligns with their beliefs. At each stage of treatment, we’ll collaborate to assess and engage in a way which best fits you.
Ultimately, my desire is to help you reach a place of freedom and peace, where you can begin experiencing incremental yet impactful improvements to your overall wellbeing so your life and relationships can bear the fruit they were always meant to.
In simplest terms, I work best with people who are overwhelmed with life's challenges, don't know where to turn or what to do next, but are searching for answers and are willing to put in the work to find them.
I believe there’s hope for everyone, even those feeling utterly defeated in this season of their lives. If you’re here, then take it as evidence; the time for healing is now.

I also provide consultation and supervision for licensed therapists and offer parenting consultations. My practice is 100% telehealth, making therapy more flexible and accessible across Washington State and Psychpact states throughout the United States.
