Courtney Brooke Sergent-Fox , LCSW

Courtney Brooke Sergent-Fox is a licensed clinician based in Kentucky who brings a compassionate, strengths-focused approach to therapy. As an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 10 years of professional experience, she supports people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, career concerns, and major life changes. Her practice also addresses family dynamics, grief, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue, with additional focus areas that include body image, communication difficulties, first responder issues, midlife transitions, and workplace or financial stress.

She frames each person as the expert of their own story and works from that belief, helping clients identify and build on existing strengths to meet whatever is challenging them. Courtney blends evidence-informed methods with practical, collaborative guidance to help people develop clearer coping strategies and more satisfying connections in their lives. Beginning therapy often takes courage, and she acknowledges that step while offering steady support as clients move toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Courtney uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness-based methods to address a range of concerns in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and pairs those insights with practical skills to reduce stress and improve daily functioning. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured approach aimed at processing memories or experiences that continue to cause distress, often used when past events affect present wellbeing. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and awareness practices that support emotional regulation and greater ease with challenging moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Courtney works collaboratively with each person to determine what best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy remains focused and responsive to progress.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone appointments, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for busy schedules, geographic limits, or different comfort levels with communication. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to fit therapy into everyday life with less disruption.
