About Casey

Casey Unger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She brings a calm, direct style and practical tools to sessions. People often come for help with anger, self-esteem, grief, parenting pressures, career stress, addiction concerns, and ADHD-related challenges.

Casey has been working in mental health since 1994 and licensed since 2002, mostly in Texas. Her background includes public mental health, inpatient psychiatric settings, diagnostics and assessment, crisis work, anger management, and employee assistance. That range shaped a straightforward, results-focused way of working.

She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to uncover thought patterns and to teach clients how to reframe unhelpful beliefs. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, achievable goals and to build steps toward change. Casey describes therapy as a collaborative conversation where practical steps matter.

In the first session she asks questions to learn who a person is and what life events shaped their beliefs. Sessions move at a steady pace with attention to patterns and problem-solving. Casey says she aims to be approachable, equal, and responsive rather than distant or superior.

She notes experience helping people who feel marginalized or overlooked, and she understands how a single traumatic event can change a life. Casey provides individual counseling only and cannot take clients covered by CVS/Aetna EAP due to a conflict of interest.

How Casey Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Casey often relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change how those thoughts affect behavior. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and patterns that keep people stuck. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients pick clear goals and identify small steps that lead to noticeable change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Casey collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will listen to what matters most and then try practical strategies while checking in to see what helps.

If you plan to meet online, confirm the session formats Casey currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, let people join from different locations, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can still focus on thought work, goal setting, and problem solving through remote sessions when those formats match your needs.
