Casey Kimbrell, LISW-CP

Casey Kimbrell is a South Carolina Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) and has ten years of professional experience. She works with adults on issues such as addiction, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, and anger. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, grief, self-esteem struggles, and career stress.

Casey describes clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for existing strengths to build on. In sessions she listens for patterns that keep people stuck, such as avoidance, perfectionism, or repeated conflicts. She then helps clients name those patterns and tests practical ways to respond differently.

Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Attachment-based ideas are brought in to understand how early relationships affect current reactions.

Casey also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness when strong feelings get in the way. Client-centered principles guide the pace and priorities of each session so the person leads the work. She often pairs short skills practice with discussion to make changes feel doable.

Work with Casey focuses on clear, practical steps. Sessions aim to reduce reactivity, improve communication, and increase the ability to tolerate difficult emotions without turning to substances or avoidance. People who want straightforward, skills-oriented support for anger and related struggles often seek this style.
