About Casey

Casey Unger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and related concerns. She works with individuals who feel overwhelmed, marginalized, or pushed aside and focuses on practical steps clients can use right away. Sessions begin with straightforward conversation to learn a person’s history, current struggles, and goals.

Casey trained in approaches that highlight how thoughts shape behavior. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns that keep them stuck. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to identify small, realistic changes that build forward momentum.

Her background includes public mental health, inpatient psychiatry, crisis intervention, assessment, anger management, and employee assistance programs. She has worked with people facing trauma, grief, addiction, relationship strain, parenting stress, chronic illness, and career transitions.

Casey describes her style as analytical and approachable. She asks questions to connect the dots in a person’s story and then helps plan clear steps for change. She aims to help clients reframe thoughts and gradually take more control over reactions.

Telephonic and televideo sessions are treated with the same care as in-person meetings. She notes that her schedule can be limited because of other roles, but will try to arrange alternate times when possible. She does individual counseling only and cannot accept CVS/Aetna EAP clients due to a conflict of interest.

Using proven approaches for remote sessions

Casey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and learn practical ways to reframe thoughts that fuel anger, anxiety, or depression. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, achievable changes and building on whatever is already working in a person’s life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Casey listens to a client’s goals, preferences, and daily realities and then suggests techniques to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Her biography notes she offers telephonic and televideo sessions and aims to make them as personal as face-to-face meetings. If you want to use remote sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow quicker check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can focus on making steady progress.
