Her work often involves sorting through family of origin issues, communication and commitment difficulties, and problems with control or emptiness.
She uses several evidence-informed approaches to match what each person needs. Sessions may include client-centered conversations that center the person's experience, cognitive behavioral tools to shift patterns of thinking and behavior, and internal family systems ideas to notice different inner parts. She pulls in solution-focused strategies when clients want short-term, goal-driven work.
Courtney aims to help people build stronger emotional awareness and healthier habits. She helps clients practice new ways to communicate, set boundaries, and manage strong feelings. Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person's readiness for change.

How her approaches shape online therapy
Courtney draws on client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on what matters to the person. That means the conversation is led by the client's concerns, with the therapist reflecting experience back and validating emotions as a way to build trust and clarity.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which teaches practical strategies to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when people want concrete tools to manage symptoms and build new routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Courtney will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single style. That choice can shift over time as progress and priorities change.
