I am currently accepting new clients! I have found the heart of therapeutic work lies in meeting clients where they are and supporting individuals as they identify what they already know to be true. I view every client through a strengths-based, trauma informed, and holistic lens. I believe in a compassionate, integrative approach to managing life's challenges, transitions, and overwhelm with a focus on mindfulness-based work. I also strongly believe in healing by integrating the cognitive, physical and spiritual elements of the self.

As human beings, life has a way of creating challenges we can find difficult to face on our own. I firmly believe each of us possess fundamental inner-strengths that can not only help us cope with these challenges, but flourish and thrive together. My goal as a therapist is to come alongside clients in a compassionate nonjudgmental stance to help identify your strengths and how to translate them into meaningful growth within yourself and in your relationships. I value using a mind/body approach and a warm, relational atmosphere in therapy. I am LGBTQIA+-affirming, trauma-informed, sex-positive, kink and poly-friendly.

When her initial pursuit of a career in evangelical ministry was disrupted by a mental health crisis, Casey was forced to reckon with the harmful impact of purity culture and systemic homophobia on her sense of self. After coming out as queer at a college that expressly forbid “homosexual behavior,” Casey made it her mission to disrupt misinformation and barriers to authenticity by pursuing her masters in counseling with a specialization in sexual and gender diversity, and ultimately received her Sexual Health Certificate from University of Michigan.

Healing can be a daunting process and I believe no individual should have to go through it alone. The healing journey is unique to each person therefore I strive to create a warm, accepting, and collaborative environment through non-judgment and cultural humility. My main goal is to empower clients to recognize their own resilience despite the obstacles they face. Through a person-centered and diversity affirming lens, I work to create a positive dynamic with each client, meanwhile helping you recognize the impacts that your thoughts and behaviors have on your ability to lead a fulfilling life.

Are you overwhelmed in your role as a parent, birth worker, pregnant person, or just as a member of society in general? Do you feel stressed trying to juggle your many responsibilities, caring for others and often leaving yourself last? Perhaps you are easily overstimulated, which feels like it's getting in the way of your relationships and work. You want to feel confident, but each day is a struggle, leading to shame and guilt. Perfectionism, worries, and sadness have taken over your life, making it hard to function without falling into "all or nothing" thinking.

Holistic Healing with Creative Arts Therapies: If traditional talk therapy, yoga, or self-help apps haven’t provided relief from stress, anxiety, depression, or grief, consider a different approach. Grounded in mindfulness and creative arts therapies—art, movement, music, and drama—we believe that the path to clarity, growth, and empowerment involves more than just talking. Creative arts therapies can help you explore and express yourself in new ways, gaining insights unique to the creative process.

Seeking out help can be hard. I hope to ease the nerves by holding space for my clients to bring their whole self to each session. James Baldwin once wrote, “I believe that if we understood ourselves better, we would damage ourselves less.” Our truest and most authentic selves are always longing for us to notice them. Rooted in a self-compassionate approach, I aim to help you get to know that self in all aspects of your life—relationships, personal life, work, etc., so that you may live a more honest, liberated, and fulfilling life.

As a trauma and couples therapist, I work with survivors of sexual and interpersonal violence and those impacted by traumatic generational cycles or systemic oppression. Depression, anxiety, issues with focus and attention, rumination, chronic pain, identity crisis, and relationship issues act as alarms that tell us things need to change. Seeking therapy can be an empowering first step in reclaiming trust in yourself, your body, and your relationships. In couples therapy, we will work on communication, rebuilding intimacy and sexuality, and creating security and stability while ditching social scripts that don't serve you anymore.

You are the expert on your life, and I will support you in transformative self-reflection and embodiment.
