Casey Carter graduated from Saint Martin's University masters counseling program with honors. She also holds a masters in public administration from the Evergreen State College and is a certified yoga teacher.

Casey holds the philosophy each person already has the wisdom needed to heal within them and are the expert on their own experience. From this standpoint, Casey uses a trauma informed, body centered approach to collaborate with the client on challenges arising in their life.

Though Casey has been trained in many modalities, a heart-centered, mindful approach informs and directs all aspects of her work. Casey will guide you to observe your internal experience from a non-judgmental place of awareness, so that you may clearly see your situation, reactions, obstacles to change, and the possible solutions within you.

Casey's style of working has been shaped by a variety of approaches including mindfulness based therapy, existential therapy, client centered, feminist therapy, and integrative therapy. Casey also offers mindfulness skills and relaxation training as a significant adjunct to the therapy.

Casey loves dancing, biking, and laughing at herself. Casey enjoys being outdoors, meditating, and being a decent human being, even when it takes work.
