Casey Overly , LPC-MHSP

Casey Overly is a Licensed Professional Counselor - MHSP who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, self-esteem concerns, and ADHD. She offers a straightforward, warm approach that aims for practical results. Her style mixes direct guidance with a light touch of humor to keep sessions grounded and human.

Casey worked in intensive outpatient settings and in private practice, so she is familiar with both structured programs and flexible one-on-one care. She leans on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address patterns that keep people stuck. In sessions she focuses on building skills that can be used between meetings, not just talked about during them.

Clients can expect clear goals and concrete tools. Casey talks through problems, helps people spot unhelpful thinking and behavior, and practices new responses together. She also attends to how emotions show up in the body and daily life, not only on paper.

Outside of work she enjoys long hikes, travel, time with her adult children, and spoiling her small white dog. Those interests shape a relaxed and approachable style in sessions. She believes people do better when they feel connected to the person helping them.

Casey is based in Tennessee and offers counseling in English. Her background in outpatient care and private practice informs a practical, down-to-earth way of helping people move forward.

Evidence-based approaches and remote care

Casey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. One common approach focuses on identifying and shifting negative thinking patterns so mood and actions can improve; this helps with anxiety, stress, and self-esteem struggles.

She also draws on methods that teach practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving daily functioning. These techniques include learning ways to tolerate distress without reacting impulsively and practicing small, achievable behavior changes to reduce symptoms of addiction and panic.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Casey works with each person to choose methods that match their goals and day-to-day life. Together they try strategies, adjust what isn’t working, and build a plan that fits the person’s preferences and needs.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when interaction matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in fits a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to get short, frequent support or to work through thoughts between sessions. These options help people keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and life demands.
