Casey is a therapist at Fort Wellness Counseling who is passionate about helping couples and families find deeper connection and healing. He has dedicated his life to building spaces where people feel safe, valued, and understood. His aim is to offer love, structure, and wholehearted presence in a world that too often forgets how healing that can be.

Early on, couples and families consistently identify one need above all: communication. Casey affirms how powerful this is, because real communication is more than words—it is also listening with openness. In that exchange of speaking and hearing each other fully, couples and families often discover the understanding, healing, and love that only grows in safe and supportive spaces.

Casey’s journey into counseling began long before his formal training. After ten years of military service, including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, he spent six years in public education as both a teacher and school counselor, working daily with children, teens, and families. He later served over a decade mostly as a supervisor of mental health clinics for a nonprofit organization. This blend of leadership and direct service shaped his commitment to walk alongside people in both everyday challenges and life’s most difficult seasons, and ultimately inspired his transition into private practice, where he brings the same spirit of consistency, compassion, and wholehearted care.

Casey’s approach to therapy is relational at its core. He is trained in the Gottman Method for couples and Bowen Family Systems Theory for families, integrating research-based tools with systemic insight. Whether working with couples who want to strengthen their connection, protect what they’ve built, or recover from crisis; families navigating generational tension; parents seeking healthier bonds with their children; or providing systemic family support during transitions from inpatient or intensive treatment, Casey helps clients move toward clarity, trust, and sustainable growth.

He holds a Doctor of Philosophy in Marriage and Family Therapy and is licensed as a Professional Counselor (LPC) and Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) in Texas, as well as a licensed counselor in Colorado. He has contributed to published research on military families and is committed to bringing both evidence-based practice and heartfelt care to every session.

Outside of work, Casey is a devoted husband to his wife Emily and proud father of three young children—Elliott, Evan, and Estela. He treasures the everyday moments of family life and finds joy in creating a home filled with energy, curiosity, and love. While his personal faith grounds him, Casey believes strongly in the importance of honoring each client’s own values and principles in the therapy room, a commitment shaped by his training in Bowen Family Systems Theory.
