Jennifer Lewis, MSW, LCSW – Licensed Clinical Supervisor
Jennifer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor at CASY Counseling. Jennifer is passionate about working with youth and adults who have experienced significant trauma, and may be struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, or major life transitions. Jennifer believes that every individual has their own story and everyone responds to life’s challenges in their own way. As a practitioner, Jennifer offers a secure, compassionate space in an environment where you are heard and feel supported without judgment. She is willing to listen and help you find health, healing, and resilience.
Jennifer believes that therapy is a collaborative process and should be tailored to your specific needs using a trauma-informed, person-centered approach. By integrating evidence-based modalities—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing—the focus is on managing symptoms that impact your daily life and building long-term empowerment. In the initial session she focuses on establishing a strong therapeutic relationship and creates a personalized plan that supports your overall well-being.

Kayla Ferguson, MSW, LSW – Licensed Social Worker & School-Based Therapist
Kayla is a Licensed School Social Worker and has more than a decade of experience working within various roles in both community mental health and the public school system. She graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Indiana State University in 2010 and completed a Masters degree in Social Work at Indiana University in 2016. A guiding quote for Kayla is “it’s not our job to toughen children up to face a cruel and heartless world; it’s our job to guide children who will help make this world a little less cruel and heartless.” Prior to working at CASY Counseling, Kayla had 7 years of experience as an elementary School Social Worker, where she advocated for and provided mental health education and support to students and families. Since becoming a mom, Kayla has also turned her attention towards addressing barriers and increasing mental health resources for moms in the community. She recently completed coursework to receive her Perinatal Mental Health Certification, and presently facilitates group services for both expecting and postpartum moms. She firmly believes that moms deserve better support, and when they have access to the support they need to thrive, children, families, and our larger community can thrive as well.
Alyssa Mitchell, MS, LMHCA – Mental Health Counselor Associate
Alyssa has served in the mental health field for several years as a case manager working with various populations prior to pursuing her credentials as a mental health counselor. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Indiana State University in 2017 and later received her Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2025. She is currently pursuing credentialing in play therapy to become a registered play therapist to continue working with youth and families. She knows it is a tough job and approach with her clients is that of compassion and warmth. Additional areas of interest are trauma focused therapy, narrative therapy, and faith-based counseling. Alyssa does understand and upholds the cultural competency that clients will not share the same values and she also values person-centered therapy where the therapeutic relationship and process is based on the client’s needs and expectation to feel safe. She provides a safe non-judgmental environment for others to express themselves just as she would ask of others. She is excited to hear your story and help you and your loved ones to feel empowered and equipped with the tools needed to move on successfully in life.
