Now accepting new virtual clients!
Hi there! I'm Casey. If it's your first time checking out the idea of therapy, you're doing great! I know it can be a pretty daunting process. I want to make sure you know that I am a normal human, just like you!
I have two cats, spent 7 years as a waitress serving tables, 3 years as a school counselor and I am a horrific speller. My favorite food recently is Szechuan Noodles. One of my chronic struggles is time management and I love the Detroit Lions! .
I would be so excited to get the opportunity to work with you. Hopefully, we are able to connect soon!
Casey Kotrba is a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor with a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology from Michigan State University and a Master's Degree in School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health from Wayne State University. She has previous professional experience in school counseling, domestic violence (IPV) advocacy, school safety, and crisis management.
Casey's passion lies in working with others to recognize and change unhealthy patterns and cycles in their lives. Unhealthy cycles can present within a single person, between two people, a group, or even among an entire family. These unhealthy cycles can creep into our lives and often go unrecognized for years until it feels insurmountable. These patterns can result in a spectrum of outcomes, all the way from making us chronically late for work, to feeling stuck in an abusive relationship, or even being financially controlled.
Sessions with Casey are conducted with a trauma-informed lens, using an integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy modalities. This looks like a lot of collaboration between the client and counselor while creating a confidential, non-judgemental, and trusted space for the client. Casey has an authentic personality that brings humor, compassion, firmness, and unconditional positive regard to all of the clients that she works with.
Casey is never here to pass judgement or tell you if what you're doing is good, bad, right or wrong, rather she creates a space for you to reflect on your own actions, values, and behaviors.
