Background and approach

She pays attention to patterns like abandonment fears, guilt and shame, isolation, and difficulty communicating needs. Courtney structures sessions so clients can address inner wounds while learning skills to regulate both body and mind. She often uses breath work and gentle movement to support awareness of physical sensations.

These practices are paired with practical strategies from cognitive approaches and mindfulness to address thoughts and behaviors. Her approach emphasizes boundary-setting without guilt and gradual change that fits each person’s pace. Sessions are collaborative and focused on clear goals that matter to the client.

The work moves from feeling safer in the body to making different choices in relationships and daily routines. Courtney works in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging as ways to stay connected between meetings.

How somatic and cognitive work translate to online therapy

Courtney draws on somatic therapy to help people notice and use bodily signals. That can include guided breathing, gentle movement, and checking where emotions show up in the body. Somatic practices help when anxiety, stress, or old hurts feel stuck in the body.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood. CBT offers clear, practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Mindfulness Therapy is another tool she uses to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods fit best based on the person’s needs and goals. This collaborative process allows adjustments over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make consistent care easier. These formats give flexibility for people balancing work, family, or other demands. They also allow continuation of somatic practices and thought-focused exercises between meetings, so progress continues outside sessions.
