About Kasey

Kasey Hawkinson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and major life changes. She believes each person knows their story best and brings a strengths-based, respectful stance to sessions. Kasey emphasizes practical steps people can try between meetings and values steady progress over quick fixes.

With six years of clinical experience, she draws on client-centered methods that keep the person’s goals front and center. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and DBT-informed skills for managing intense emotions. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies are folded in when someone wants clarity and short-term goal work.

Kasey works with people coping with a wide range of life stressors. Her background includes supporting those facing aging or geriatric concerns, hospice and end-of-life issues, veteran and armed forces matters, body image difficulties, and challenges around money and financial issues. She also has experience with communication problems, family-related stress, and pregnancy or postpartum transitions.

Sessions emphasize collaboration and clear next steps. Kasey listens for the strengths that already exist in a person’s life and helps turn those into practical coping tools. She encourages small, achievable changes that add up over time.

People who prefer straightforward talk and concrete strategies often find her approach useful. She offers therapy in English and practices in Arizona as an LPC.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s priorities first and focuses on listening, empathy, and growing the client’s own strengths. That approach helps when someone wants space to talk through grief, life transitions, or relationship stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers specific exercises to reduce anxiety and lift mood. It is often used when someone wants practical steps to manage worry or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, brings skill-building for emotional regulation and distress tolerance and can be useful for intense emotions or self-harm urges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether to emphasize client-centered listening, CBT exercises, DBT skills, or a mix. That choice will reflect goals, the issue at hand, and what feels most helpful to the person.

Confirm current session options before booking. The main practical benefit of online work is fitting therapy into a busy life - fewer travel minutes, easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and simpler check-ins on a tough day. Online sessions can also make it easier to try short-focused skill practice or weekly strategy check-ins when that rhythm helps progress.
