About Casey

Casey Kimbrell is a licensed social worker with ten years of clinical experience in South Carolina. She centers sessions on each person's strengths and life story. Casey invites clients to take small, practical steps toward clearer thinking and steadier emotions.

She helps people who are struggling with addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports those facing anxiety, stress, eating concerns, grief, and issues around self-esteem. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, caregiver stress, and family of origin problems.

Casey uses straightforward, collaborative methods in session. She listens, reflects what she hears, and helps clients set goals that feel manageable. Sessions often focus on skills for handling intense feelings and on changing unhelpful thinking patterns.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These methods inform how she helps people build better communication, manage cravings or strong emotions, and reconnect to what matters most.

Casey describes the therapeutic relationship as a partnership where clients guide the work. She emphasizes practical tools alongside deeper conversations about family patterns and past hurts. The aim is clearer choices and more reliable coping over time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, and teaches practical tools to change them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for tolerating distress and managing intense emotions while improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adapt techniques over time. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client check what helps and adjust plans accordingly.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and help people fit therapy into busy days. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone when they need a quick support, while others use video for longer, more interactive sessions. Discussing practical details while scheduling will clarify which format will best match your needs and routine.
