About Casey

Casey Unger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 30 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief, parenting strains, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Casey also addresses family of origin issues and related patterns that keep showing up in adult life.

She has worked in public mental health, inpatient psychiatric settings, crisis intervention, diagnostics and assessments, anger management, and employee assistance. That range informs how she notices repeated behavior and thought patterns across different situations. She draws on practical, skills-based methods to help clients recognize what keeps them stuck.

Her primary method is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which she uses to point out negative thinking and unconscious schemas. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients set small, achievable goals and see progress. Motivational Interviewing and Client-Centered Therapy appear in her work as complementary styles.

In early sessions she asks clear questions about a person's background, beliefs, and how past experiences shaped current reactions. She aims to map patterns and then coach steps to reframe thoughts and change behavior. She describes this as helping clients learn to be their own therapist over time.

Casey says she can reach people who feel marginalized or overlooked. She offers individual counseling only and cannot accept clients through CVS/Aetna EAP due to a conflict of interest. Prospective clients should confirm session formats before booking, including telephonic or televideo options mentioned in her biography.

Online sessions and therapeutic approaches

Casey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and reframing negative thoughts and unconscious schemas that drive behavior, which helps with anxiety, depression, and repeated family patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical goals and steps that create measurable change and forward movement.

She approaches choosing methods as a joint process. The therapist will talk with each client about goals, preferred ways of working, and what feels most useful. Then they try approaches and adjust them as needed so the work fits the person's needs and preferences.

The biography mentions telephonic and televideo formats, but prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone sessions may be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and video sessions let the therapist observe nonverbal cues; Casey aims to make remote sessions as personal as face-to-face while helping people apply CBT and solution-focused skills in everyday life.
