About Courtney
Courtney Groce is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, grief, and the stress that comes with life changes. Her style is warm and responsive, aimed at making conversations feel straightforward and useful from the first session.
Courtney centers sessions on clear skills and real-world steps. She helps people build self-esteem, improve communication, and find coping strategies that work day to day. She uses approaches that encourage acceptance of difficult feelings while taking small actions toward valued goals. Courtney describes her approach as culturally aware and empathetic. She aims to create a space where people can talk through hard experiences and try different ways of responding. Sessions tend to be collaborative, with practical suggestions a person can use between meetings. Clients can expect straightforward feedback and a calm presence during emotional moments. She helps people weigh options and practice new skills rather than offering quick fixes. The overall goal is steadier coping and clearer choices when life feels overwhelming.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Courtney uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult feelings and still act toward what matters to them. ACT focuses on values and small, consistent steps rather than trying to eliminate every distressing thought.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a hands-on approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and habit patterns that people want to change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Courtney will discuss your goals and preferences and help choose methods that fit your needs. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as you learn what helps best.

Online work can also make it easier to try new skills between sessions while staying connected with a licensed professional.
