About Cortney
Cortney Edwards is a licensed counselor in Texas who focuses on anxiety and related concerns. She uses a down-to-earth approach and aims to build a respectful, encouraging working relationship so clients can make progress at their own pace. Cortney keeps sessions practical and person-focused.
She listens first, then helps people set clear goals. Sessions may involve looking at recent problems, tracing patterns from the past, and trying small changes that feel doable.
Background and approach
Her tools include cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand close relationships and on mindfulness to help people stay present when stress rises. Solution-focused steps are used to create short-term plans when immediate relief is needed.
Cortney has five years of documented clinical experience and holds credentials as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC, and a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC. She has worked in independent practice and in school settings, supporting people through life transitions, parenting challenges, mood concerns, and identity-related stress.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time. To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to the therapist's availability.
Approaches that fit online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. It can help people who struggle with trust, closeness, or recurring relationship cycles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through clear steps and experiments. It is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, supportive relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead and helps them clarify goals and values.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Cortney will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean using CBT exercises one week and attachment-focused conversations the next, or blending mindfulness and solution-focused steps for short-term goals.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face interaction when that helps. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging can be used for quick updates, brief coaching, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work between meetings.
