Background and approach

Courtney works with people facing life transitions and motivation struggles. She helps clients set small, realistic goals and practice new skills between sessions. Conversations focus on what is going on now and what practical steps can help move someone forward.

She also addresses relationship structures and sexual identity issues, including polyamory, BDSM and kink-related topics, and gender dysphoria. Intellectual disability and autism spectrum concerns are included in her experience, with adjustments made to match each person's pace and needs. Courtney speaks English and provides sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a convenient time to begin work together.

Practical approaches for online care

Many clients find short-term, focused work helpful for managing anxiety and stress. One common strategy is structured problem solving - breaking concerns into steps, trying small changes, and reviewing what worked. This helps when day-to-day worries feel overwhelming and you want concrete ways to cope.

Another useful approach is skills-based work for attention and motivation challenges. That involves developing routines, using reminders, and practicing brief habits that support focus and follow-through. It can be useful for people who notice struggles with organization or sustaining tasks, including those who identify with ADHD-related challenges.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust as progress is made. This collaborative process helps determine which techniques feel most useful for the person over time.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving several ways to connect. Video is good for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging let someone check in between meetings or use shorter sessions. Those options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
