Background and approach
Her style blends several practical methods rather than sticking to one model. Sessions often focus on simple skills and clear goals. She listens for how symptoms show up in daily routines and helps people try small, doable changes.
Courtney uses a systemic, integrative lens to see how relationships, work, and life stages affect emotional health. She leans on client-centered conversation and evidence-informed techniques to address mood, attention, and coping skills. She also draws on attachment ideas to understand patterns in close relationships.
People who meet her can expect an empathic, direct clinician who values honesty and real-world solutions. Outside of work she spends time outdoors with her husband and dog, enjoys live music, and finds balance in nature and animals.
Evidence-informed approaches for online care
Courtney frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a way to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and take values-based action. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and for people who feel stuck in avoidance patterns.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and to teach practical skills for sleep, mood, attention, and stress management. CBT-style techniques are often used for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit day-to-day life, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients help decide which tools feel most helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is good for a fuller conversation and interactive work, phone calls can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth, and chat or messaging is useful for short check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, school, or family life.
