About Casey

Casey Machado is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with 19 years of experience. She focuses on practical support for everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and relationship concerns. Casey speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.

She frames the client as the expert in their own life and works alongside them to build on what already helps.

Background and approach

Casey uses straightforward methods to help people change unhelpful patterns and feel more capable. She listens for the real-life pressures behind symptoms like sleep problems, low mood, or anger, and breaks work into small, clear steps. Sessions often include learning simple skills to manage anxiety, check negative thoughts, and improve communication.

Her approach emphasizes practical tools and steady progress rather than long lectures or one-size-fits-all plans. She helps clients notice strengths and put them to work on immediate concerns like parenting, breaking cycles in relationships, or coping with loss. Meetings are meant to be collaborative, with the client and therapist deciding what to try and when to adjust.

Casey also brings attention to issues that often sit under the surface, such as attachment wounds, caregiver stress, body image, or burnout. Over time she helps people build routines that support sleep, mood, and daily functioning. Her goal is to help people leave sessions with specific steps they can try between meetings.

Approaches and online options for hands-on change

Casey uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and habits that get in the way of daily life by teaching skills you can use right away.

She emphasizes practical exercises and small behavior changes that people can try between sessions. Together the client and therapist decide which strategies to use, when to try them, and how to adjust if something does not fit. This collaborative approach helps match the work to a person’s goals and day-to-day routines.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, continue work during life transitions, or keep momentum between meetings. The variety of options also lets people choose the way of connecting that feels most comfortable while still focusing on concrete skills and steady progress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
