About Caley

Caley Markuson is a licensed professional counselor who helps people handle depression, anxiety, stress and life changes. She brings six years of counseling experience and a background in education to each session. Caley balances talk therapy with practical workbook activities so people leave with tools they can use right away.

She trained in special education and holds master’s degrees in Special Education from the University of Virginia and in School Counseling/Professional Counseling from Montana State University Northern. Caley also has experience as a school counselor and special education teacher, and she draws on that classroom experience when working with clients. That background informs how she breaks down problems and teaches new skills.

Her approach is grounded in client-centered care and cognitive behavioral techniques. She also uses mindfulness practices and trauma-focused methods when those fit a person’s needs. Sessions often include workbook exercises and homework to build skills between meetings.

Caley has worked with people facing trauma, grief, bipolar disorder, HPPD, ADHD, seasonal mood shifts, and workplace stress among other concerns. She keeps learning through conferences and trainings to stay current with research and resources. Outside work she spends time outdoors, foraging and exploring the mountains with her family and dogs.

People who choose Caley can expect a practical, down-to-earth style focused on clear steps forward. She aims to help clients identify manageable goals and develop coping strategies for daily life.

How her approaches translate to online care

Caley often uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the person, and shaping goals around their values. Cognitive behavioral therapy means identifying patterns of thought and behavior and practicing different responses to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

These approaches are explained and tried together with each person. Caley treats choosing a method as a collaborative step rather than a one-time decision. She will review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before recommending which techniques to focus on.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find remote sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy life, keeping appointments during work breaks, or doing short check-ins without travel. Online work can also make it easy to use workbook activities between meetings and to practice mindfulness exercises in daily settings.

Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to address depression, trauma reactions, workplace stress, and attention concerns. The process typically emphasizes practical skills, regular practice, and collaborative planning to help people meet their short-term goals and build routines that support longer-term change.
