Background and approach

Sessions often include simple exercises to learn new coping skills and shift unhelpful patterns. Courtney brings nine years of clinical experience in Colorado to her work. She supports people facing relationship challenges, career transitions, parenting strain, and issues such as addiction or depression.

She also addresses concerns like attachment wounds, abandonment, and codependency in straightforward terms. Her approach is client-centered and non-judgmental. She meets each person where they are and co-creates practical steps that feel doable.

Many conversations include goal-setting, skills practice, and exploring how feelings show up in the body. People who choose Courtney typically want concrete tools as well as space to process loss, change, or uncertainty. She offers video, phone, chat, and text-based sessions that fit into busy lives.

If someone wants help sorting next steps, she guides them through a clear, collaborative process.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Somatic-informed work helps people tune into how stress and emotion appear in the body. Online sessions can include guided body awareness, breath work, and movement suggestions that a person practices in the moment to reduce tension and shift sensations.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. It focuses on clarifying values and taking doable actions toward what matters, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed during video or phone calls.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. In online sessions this often means talking through relationship history, identifying patterns, and trying new ways of relating in day-to-day life with gentle experiments and reflection.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That plan can change over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people work face-to-face from home, while phone, live chat, and text-based messaging provide shorter or asynchronous options. These formats make it easier to practice skills between sessions and keep therapy consistent during life transitions.
