I believe that when we feel safe, seen, and heard, healing becomes possible. That’s the heart of any healthy relationship, and it’s what I hope to offer in the space we create together during our sessions. With a trauma-informed approach, I understand that all kinds of things can come up, be they attachment or inner-child wounds, grief, anxiety, depression, negative self-talk, or coping habits that just don’t work anymore. My goal is to help you understand what you’ve been carrying this whole time, and support you in building a new way of living that feels more connected and true to who you are.

Welcome! My name is Casey and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with with several year of service to the great residents of Nevada. I work to provide a calm and peaceful environment where healing can happen. In treatment I focus heavily on increasing awareness through the use of mindfulness. For example, consider how much time we spend thinking about the past or future compared to the present. Too much time in the future breeds anxiety while too much time in the past breeds depression. The present is where we find peace even for just a moment.

My clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by their thoughts, their emotions, or just life in general. That might look like anxiety that won’t quiet down, lingering sadness, trouble focusing, or feeling out of place in relationships or the world. They may be carrying past trauma or navigating life as a neurodivergent person. What they want is to feel more like themselves again, or maybe figure out who that even is. They’re looking for support, clarity, and a sense that they’re not alone.

You may look high-functioning on the outside, yet inside feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or disconnected from yourself. You may have already done talk therapy and gained insight, but still notice stress, anxiety, or old patterns that have not fully shifted. If you are seeking gentle, trauma-informed support that goes deeper, you are not alone. I help clients move forward by supporting emotional regulation, inner safety, and a deeper connection to their authentic self.

Life can be stressful and unpredictable. I seek to provide counseling to individuals, couples, and families who are looking for support. We each have stories that our minds create in order to make sense of our world and ourselves. These stories speak to our evolving identities, abilities, relationships, achievements, and fears. I wish to hear the life narratives that my clients experience. I honor the roles that culture, personal history, and lived experience play in how we understand ourselves, and I support clients in reconnecting with strengths they may have forgotten they had.

Starting therapy is a brave step, and it’s one I deeply honor. Whether you're navigating a life transition, experiencing relationship difficulties, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a warm and collaborative space to explore what’s beneath the surface—with curiosity, care, and a sense of purpose.
I specialize in working with couples who are feeling disconnected, frustrated, or trapped in recurring patterns. I also enjoy working with individuals and teens navigating life’s inevitable changes—whether that’s a shift in identity, career, loss, or relational challenges.

Do you want to change how you feel on a daily basis? Are there old patterns that are no longer serving you or your relationships with others? Life is full of transitions and situations that can feel overwhelming and difficult to navigate. Often, it can be difficult to find a name for our emotions. I enjoy working with people who are eager to learn more about themselves; yet are struggling to voice their needs and have learned to keep themselves connected by either over-giving, people pleasing or isolating. Together, we can work towards deconstructing internalized messages to help you find your authentic voice.

I primarily work with two populations: 1) men who are struggling in their intimate relationships and 2) high accountability professionals...often they are one and the same. The men I work with report growing distance in their relationships, fear that the relationship will end if they do not make changes, and, at times, that they are in abusive relationships. My clients often report high levels of success in many aspects of their lives and deep frustrations and confusion as to why they struggle in their personal relationships. Our work focuses on practical strategies they can use to make transformative changes.

It takes courage to reach out for help and I commend you for doing so. Many of us get stuck in old patterns of the past that keep us from living presently as well as creating the future lives that we actually want; that we get excited for. Thankfully, there are ways to officially heal from the past, whether those are thoughts, behaviors, painful memories, or unwanted perceptions of ourselves, of others, of life. If this resonates with you, I look forward to meeting with you and becoming a co-author of your new story.
