About Courtney
Courtney brings 18 years of clinical experience and approaches each client with respect for their unique story, strengths, faith, values, education, and life experiences. She commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies alongside other tools to tailor care for transitions, conflict, stress, grief, trauma, family challenges, and parenting concerns. Practical tasks such as worksheets or in-session assignments are sometimes used to reinforce progress between meetings.
Outside of her professional life, Courtney is married to her college sweetheart and is a parent to three children, as well as caregiver to several additional children she has welcomed into her home over the years. She holds an LCMHC, which stands for Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. Her practice emphasizes collaboration - clarifying values, identifying strengths, setting achievable goals, and making realistic plans so clients can begin moving forward as soon as they are ready.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Courtney often integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT is practical and useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges. She also uses solution-focused therapy, which concentrates on present strengths and realistic steps to achieve specific goals, making it well suited for life transitions, parenting issues, and relationship concerns. Emotionally-focused approaches are used when relationship patterns and attachment needs are central, helping partners and family members understand emotions and reconnect in meaningful ways.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Courtney works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with a licensed professional - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow therapy to fit into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and make support accessible from different locations. These options enable consistent care and make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions.
