Therapy is about relationship building, vulnerability, and ultimately being known. This process can be anxiety-provoking, and my goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to be yourself, and get the support that you need and deserve. I take an eclectic approach to counseling that draws on Person-Centered and Psychodynamic therapies, while incorporating Multicultural, Feminist and Cognitive Behavioral therapies. I have experience working as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a range of individuals and couples through a spectrum of life's challenges including grief, complex trauma and life transitions.

I currently offer individual therapy to children, teens, and adults.
I believe strongly in therapy's capacity to help us experience a wider range of feelings and situations more flexibly, and to help us experience a greater sense of vitality. You may have specific issues that are troubling you with relationships, work, or your identity, for example. You may have a potentially harder-to-name sense of dissatisfaction or emptiness. Any of these are good reasons to seek therapy.

Whether it be the pursuit of change and growth, or difficulty coping with chronic physical, psychological, or social issues, seeking psychotherapy can be the first step towards achieving resilience, purpose, and a better quality of life. I work with individuals, families and couples to identify areas of improvement, foster change, cope with symptoms, and maintain progress. For many, a history of trauma (emotional/ physical/ sexual/ financial abuse, abandonment, bullying, domestic violence, etc) or medical difficulties (chronic/terminal illness, pain) can complicate treatment needs. Cases of grief, mood and anxiety disorders can respond differently to psychotherapy when these elements are present.

I have clinical experience providing psychotherapy to adults, adolescents, couples, children, and families in high-acuity and outpatient settings.
My ideal client is someone who feels stuck—emotionally, relationally, or in how they see themselves—and wants to understand why familiar patterns keep repeating. They may struggle with anxiety, mood, shame, intimacy, identity questions, or the effects of earlier relationships and experiences. Often thoughtful and self-reflective, they want more than symptom relief: they want clarity, emotional freedom, and more satisfying connections with others and themselves.

And with honesty, we’ll ask if they still make sense for your future.

Hi, I’m Courtney. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re used to holding everything together on your own. Many people come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected, unsure why certain patterns keep repeating or why life feels harder than it looks from the outside. I often work with thoughtful people who grew up having to be strong, responsible, or emotionally self-sufficient, and now feel exhausted by perfectionism, self-criticism, or always being “the capable one”.
