About Robert
Robert "Pat" Casey is a licensed professional counselor with 40 years of experience. He focuses on practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or parenting strains. Pat aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where concerns can be named and worked through.
He uses clear, direct conversation to help clients identify what feels stuck and what might change. That can mean learning new ways to manage anxiety, finding steps to rebuild self-esteem, or sorting priorities during major life shifts.
Background and approach
Sessions often blend problem-solving with time to notice emotions and patterns. Pat draws from several therapeutic approaches. He leans on client-centered work to follow each person’s pace, uses cognitive behavioral techniques to reshape unhelpful thinking, and draws on emotionally focused ideas to address relational and intimacy concerns.
He also incorporates psychodynamic and solution-focused tools when they fit the goal. Over four decades of practice he has helped people navigate grief, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar challenges, and career questions. He also addresses issues like ADHD, social phobia, guilt and shame, and building self-love.
His goal is to offer concrete options that match each person’s life and values. Pat practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. He supports clients through straightforward conversation, practical exercises, and collaborative planning so people can move toward clearer goals and calmer days.

Online approaches that focus on feelings and actions
Client-centered therapy puts the client's voice first and helps the therapist follow what matters most to the person. It is useful for people who want more space to name feelings and decide their pace of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. It often helps with worry, stress, and building practical coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Pat will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. He treats selection as a collaborative process, adjusting techniques if something does not feel helpful or if priorities shift over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you need to fit a session into a busy day. Chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, written reflection, or when you prefer not to be on camera. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, and other responsibilities.
