Casey Levrich, LCSW

Casey Levrich is a licensed clinical social worker in Wisconsin with 13 years of hands-on experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and everyday coping skills. Casey aims to make starting therapy straightforward and understandable for worried parents and busy people.

Casey spent seven years working at the Department of Veterans Affairs and has extensive experience treating substance use disorders in both residential and outpatient settings. That background shaped a straightforward style that centers on each person’s strengths and goals. She listens first, then helps people decide workable steps forward.

In sessions she uses client-centered methods to build a trusting working relationship. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change thoughts and habits that get in the way of feeling better. Motivational interviewing approaches are used when people are trying to find or strengthen motivation for change.

Casey helps people facing big life transitions and repetitive patterns that cause stress or isolation. She offers practical tools for managing mood, handling caregiver strain, improving communication, and addressing problems with alcohol or drugs. The work is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs.

To begin, Casey asks people to share what matters most to them and what they hope to change. From there she helps set small, achievable goals and checks progress along the way. Her style is direct, respectful, and focused on helping people get clearer routines and healthier thinking habits.

How these approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's goals. In online sessions this looks like time spent understanding what matters most and shaping goals around daily life and family demands.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Online work can include brief skill practice, tracking thoughts between sessions, and checking in about small changes to routines and habits.

Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change by exploring values and building internal motivation. In remote sessions the therapist and client can work together to find manageable first steps and keep momentum.

Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan over time based on how things are going.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the therapist's biography does not specify formats here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time so appointments are easier to keep. These practical benefits can help people maintain momentum while they work on thoughts and everyday habits.
