Hi, I'm Courtney. I believe meaningful change begins when people feel genuinely heard, understood, and accepted. My goal is to create a space where you can explore life's challenges openly, knowing you'll be met with warmth, curiosity, and compassion rather than judgment. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and other difficulties that can make life feel overwhelming. My approach is collaborative, emotionally focused, and personalized because I believe every person's story is unique.
You may be used to carrying a lot for others. You may wonder if your concerns even matter. My approach combines warmth, cultural awareness, and practical strategies to help you move beyond anxiety, overthinking, and emotional burnout. I also work with people wanting to bridge their faith with counseling.
Many of my clients are also used to being the “strong friend”, the dependable partner, or the person everyone turns to for support. Therapy offers a space where you can finally receive that same care and attention. If you’re looking for a therapist who provides supportive and culturally responsive therapy, I would be honored to connect with you!

Because no individual is the same, I often use an Integrative Approach in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what led you to therapy and will work together to decide the most appropriate ways to achieve your goals. With a culturally sensitive and emotionally focused lens, we will utilize the best interventions to bring about change.
