Practical approaches for online care

Courtney uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life changes. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and test new, healthier ways of responding to stress and anxiety. This kind of work is useful for low mood, worry, and improving day-to-day coping.

Another focus is on attachment and relationship patterns. Sessions look at how early relationship experiences shape current reactions and communication, and then practice different ways to connect and set boundaries. That model is helpful for people dealing with codependency, jealousy, or commitment concerns.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Courtney listens to your goals and preferences, and together you try methods that fit your situation. If something isn’t working, she adapts the plan so therapy stays practical and useful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler to fit into a busy day, and chat or messaging are good for shorter check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
