I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education specializing in working with adults, couples, & poly folks to help with challenges such as managing anxiety, depression, LGBTQAI+ identity, relationship issues, PTSD, & letters for HRT and surgeries.

Life can be a difficult journey that brings upon an array of emotions, some heavier than others. I believe that once the war between the heart and mind ends, you are then able to experience true freedom to thrive, flourish and become your best!

Hi there! Starting therapy or any new journey of our lives can be difficult, so we are here to support you during this therapeutic process. Whether it's anxiety, depression, trauma, family, marital, relationship, sexuality, or employment stressors, we have the tools and are passionate about working with you. My name is Courtney Howell, I am a LGBTQ+ affirmative, body positive, and non-traditional relationship affirming therapist. I try to help teens, adults, and couples find a place where they are accepted and comfortable. I provide online telehealth sessions at this time ONLY.

Through counseling I help individuals and couples who are struggling through life transitions, such as becoming new parents. If you are feeling hopeless, isolated, or overwhelmed, I will work with you to help you feel like yourself again. As your therapist, I will empower and guide you, in an environment free of judgement, to help you experience personal growth so you can get back to who you want to be. People say that I am a therapist who uses compassion, humor, and directness to help my clients come up with realistic strategies to start feeling better.

My most ideal client would be an individual who is struggling with school and transitioning into adulthood. I want to assist this client in discovering their goals and finding methods that will help them achieve them. I want to collaborate with them in exploring different options that will help them achieve success in their future.

I believe in sitting across from people, not diagnoses.Sessions often focus on overcoming trust issues, building self esteem, assertiveness training, goal setting, and self acceptance.Using strategies of CBT with eclectic methods, I will assist you in identifying your problem areas and together we will collaborate on steps you can take to overcome them through discussions, identifying triggers, and learning coping skills. I look forward to working with you and learning more about you as each individual's story is unique and worth telling!

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist and Life Coach with over 28 years of experience, compassionate about helping others to rise above and better deal with their life challenges, both past and present. I had the pleasure of being licensed as a psychologist in Beijing, China and worked with expats from around the globe during my years as an Expat. I have successfully treated depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, eating disorders, career-related, and expat issues. I've also helped those who have experienced emotional trauma/other abuse. I invite you to not just work on "getting better" but to work on "getting well".

My goal is to provide focused treatment to help you feel better quickly. You can learn skills to reduce anxiety, mood swings, and negative life patterns. We may be a good match if you are experiencing grief or loss, relationship distress, anxiety, depression, or PTSD from trauma, or if you want to increase self-care. I also work well with children of alcoholics and caregivers (w/ a loved-one with dementia or illness.) Overall, I strive to help clients become more joyful and successful with themselves and with others. I welcome clients with a range of multicultural, gender and sexual identities, and I am committed to social justice.

IN-PERSON only! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with almost 20 years of experience. I work with adults in all seasons of life.

I'm very interactive in my therapy & feel that being genuine with a client is the most valuable way to help them.

I am a trauma-informed provider who specializes in supporting individuals and couples navigating conflict, depression, anxiety, infertility, chronic illness, grief/loss, trauma and transition. One of the bravest things we can do is begin to understand our own stories. Clients I support often grapple with the impact of narratives about who they were, are, or "should be", leaving them questioning, "Do I matter?" or shedding pieces of their identity to generate a sense of belonging. Together, we can explore societal and relational influences on your story, while identifying your values, strengths, options for healing and growth.
