About Courtney
Courtney Jackson Matthews is a licensed clinical social worker in Louisiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and life changes. She supports those dealing with low self-esteem, addiction concerns, panic attacks, and difficulties with social anxiety.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person’s situation. Sessions emphasize developing self-love, improving communication, and finding workable coping strategies.
Background and approach
Courtney places attention on guilt, shame, control issues, and the loneliness that can follow big transitions. Courtney brings five years of clinical experience to her practice. She centers cultural responsiveness in her work and aims to make therapy welcoming for LGBTQ+ people and communities of color.
That background shapes how she listens and what she suggests in session. In meetings she focuses on concrete skills alongside listening. People can expect practical tools to manage panic, reduce intense worry, and handle addictive urges.
She also supports exploration of life purpose and rebuilding social connections. Courtney offers phone and video calls as well as chat and text-based messaging for ongoing support. She guides each person toward strategies that fit their daily life and goals.
Approaches and online sessions that fit busy lives
Two commonly used evidence-based approaches are practical skill-building and emotion-focused work. Practical skill-building teaches steps to manage worry and panic, such as brief grounding exercises and problem-solving methods that can be used during stressful moments. Emotion-focused work helps people name and sit with difficult feelings like shame or grief, which can reduce their intensity over time.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try techniques, and adjust plans together based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide which methods to keep using as they track progress and shift priorities.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share thoughts between sessions or use written check-ins when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and maintain steady support.
