Casey French , LPC

Casey French is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing depression, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, anger, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue. Casey centers much of her work on women's issues alongside other life transitions and role-related stressors.

Casey uses a straightforward, collaborative style in sessions. She listens, asks clear questions, and helps clients build practical skills. She draws heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, using it to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of behaving.

Clients can expect short-term skill building and longer-term work when needed. Casey helps people set small, achievable goals and track progress between meetings. She also offers strategies for coping with crises, managing strong emotions, and improving everyday routines.

Casey has ten years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri. Her background includes work with first responders, caregivers, veterans, and people facing major life changes. This experience informs her focus on practical tools for stress, trauma, and role-related demands.

The therapy process is tailored to each person. Casey will work with clients to pick methods that match their needs and preferences. Sessions can include skills practice, thought restructuring, and planning to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

How CBT and online sessions work together

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot patterns of thinking that make problems worse. It breaks those patterns into small parts so clients can test different thoughts and behaviors and notice what changes. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping after trauma or loss.

Casey pairs CBT with a practical, goal-focused process. She helps clients pick exercises and homework that match their daily life. Together they track progress and adjust methods when something is not working, so the approach evolves with the client's needs and preferences.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls let people work face-to-face without traveling. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for quick reflections, brief coping tools, or when writing feels easier than talking.

The therapist-client relationship is collaborative: Casey will help find the best mix of session format and therapeutic steps. That flexibility can make it simpler to practice new skills, stay consistent with sessions, and apply techniques where they matter most in everyday life.
