First time ever doing therapy in my life and she’s been great. I’ve heard horror stories from friends about irl therapists so I was even more scared to try telehealth but it is affordable and helpful so, I recommend and appreciate it

Courtney is kind, respectful, and highly professional. She creates a warm, safe space where I can dive into working on my trauma history while feeling seen and supported. She provides a caring and non-judgmental vibe and it is easy to feel comfortable with her as well as feel she absolutely has my best interests at heart. You can tell she is doing work she loves to do. I feel quite fortunate to have been paired up with Courtney.

Courtney is a fantastic counselor who has inspired confidence in me as to her expertise and skill in dealing with trauma and emotional instability. She has been extraordinarily empathetic and sensitive to my needs and pacing as a patient. Historically, I have struggled to continue with counseling and I have been treatment averse, but I look forward to my sessions with Courtney and feel genuinely better after each time we meet.
