In my 16 years of experience as a therapist, I have discovered that each of us has problems that at times become overwhelming. Many of us know that we are capable, but there are times when each of us find ourselves struggling to cope with certain issues. My counseling approach acknowledges this similarity in all of us. My approach to counseling embraces the reality that all of us will both need and offer help as we journey through life. More importantly, I embrace the value that my clients place upon the issues they present to me. From my perspective, any issue that you feel will improve your well being deserves the benefit of therapy to help you get there. In my practice, I take a non-directive, practical approach to helping. I acknowledge your strengths and embrace you as your own greatest resource. I recognize that each of us experience our distress in our own way. My approach involves listening to you. I believe that therapy is a place for growth and new perspectives. My clients have come to me for many reasons, but much of the time it is because although help is needed, they don't want to be a burden on friends or worry family members that might otherwise be supports. My approach involves exploring your difficult experiences, processing emotions, and building strategies to help you cope with life's challenges.

Hello! My name is Courtney. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for 4 years but have been working in the field since 2013. I have my Bachelor's in Psychology and Master's in Forensic Psychology. I have years of experience working with clients experiencing a wide range of diagnoses, including but not limited to, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, and Psychosis, My style of counseling covers a wide range of modalities, including but not limited to, Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strength-Based ,and Psychoanalytic. I believe treatment is and should be individualized, and therefore does not always fit perfectly with one form of treatment or another. I have a person-centered approach giving my clients the opportunity to guide the direction of their sessions. I like to begin my sessions with first gathering information about my client, why they have decided to reach out for counseling and what they hope to gain from treatment. Through the first couple of sessions, building rapport and understanding overall treatment goals will determine which treatment approach will be most appropriate.
