Therapy in Alpine, Utah · In-Person & Online
I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, relationship patterns, identity, and the weight of experiences they haven't fully made sense of yet.
About Me
"Sometimes the ways we learned to cope growing up show up later as anxiety, people-pleasing, or overthinking in relationships."
Hi, I'm Casey — a therapist based in Alpine, Utah, working with teens and adults who want to understand themselves more deeply and create real, lasting change.
Many of my clients look capable on the outside, but internally feel stuck in patterns they don't fully understand. They're thoughtful, self-aware people who sense there's something beneath the surface worth exploring — and they're right.
My style is warm, collaborative, and client-focused. I'm not here to hand you a diagnosis or tell you what to do. I'm here to slow down with you, listen carefully, and help you make sense of what's been happening — both inside and in your relationships.
I hold an MSW from Grand Canyon University and have trained in several evidence-based approaches. I also incorporate the Enneagram as an optional tool for self-understanding when it feels like a good fit. I see clients in Alpine and online throughout Utah.

My Approach
I don't use a one-size-fits-all model. Our work together is shaped by what you're carrying, what you're hoping for, and what actually helps you grow.
Many of the patterns that feel most stuck — anxiety, people-pleasing, emotional reactivity — have roots in early relational experiences. We explore those roots with curiosity, not blame. Everything we do is grounded in an understanding of how trauma shows up in the body and in relationships.
I draw from approaches that research has shown to be effective — including CBT (understanding how thoughts affect feelings), DBT skills (tools for emotional regulation), and NARM (a trauma model focused on identity and relationships). We use what works for you, not a rigid protocol.
You set the pace. I listen first, ask good questions, and tailor our work to your goals. Therapy here is a genuine partnership — you're the expert on your own life, and I'm here to help you understand it more clearly.
Managing symptoms matters, but the work I find most meaningful happens when clients start to understand why a pattern exists — where it came from, what it's been trying to do. That kind of understanding changes things from the inside out.
Change is hard. I bring warmth and humor into our sessions because growth doesn't require suffering — and because you deserve a space that actually feels safe. We won't spend our time criticizing you; we'll spend it understanding you.
For clients who are curious, the Enneagram is a powerful framework for understanding the deeper motivations behind how you think, feel, connect, and protect yourself. Always optional — never used to put you in a box.
Services & Specialties
Overthinking, tension, always bracing for something — we'll find where it's coming from and build steadier ground. I also work with teens navigating these same challenges.
We'll gently explore how past experiences show up in your present — in your body, relationships, and sense of self. At your pace. No forcing, no rushing.
There's a reason intrusive thoughts are taking up space — and there's a path through it. Using ERP, we'll work gradually to loosen their grip. OCD is highly treatable.
Enneagram-Informed Therapy
The Enneagram is a personality framework that organizes nine distinct patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating — not as boxes to stay in, but as starting points for understanding yourself more honestly. I use it as an optional tool in therapy when it's useful, drawing from multiple traditions including the neurobiological lens of Dan Siegel. It works on the surface level and as deep as you're willing to go. Curious?
A lens for understanding motivation, not a label
