About Courtney
Courtney Sawyer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on anxiety and stress-related concerns. She brings four years of clinical experience to sessions and aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for people who are nervous about the first step. She helps people talk through anxiety, low mood, and worries about self-worth.
She also supports clients navigating LGBT matters, motivation struggles, and life transitions. Sessions are meant to be a place to share thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Background and approach
Courtney pays attention to practical coping skills. She works with clients to build strategies for day-to-day stress, improve confidence, and manage symptoms that interfere with work or relationships. Conversations are geared toward actions that can be tried between sessions.
She has additional experience with ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome concerns, and topics around gender dysphoria and sexual expression such as kink and polyamory. Courtney also addresses issues like forgiveness, jealousy, and self-love when those come up in therapy. Her approach is collaborative and straightforward.
People will find a calm, steady presence and a focus on what helps most in real life. Taking the first step is recognized as brave, and Courtney encourages small practical moves forward.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help
Courtney uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical coping and skill-building. One common approach emphasizes short-term skill work to reduce anxious thoughts and manage stress, teaching ways to break down worries and try small experiments that test unhelpful beliefs. Another approach centers on mood and motivation, where conversations target activity planning, improving routines, and increasing small wins that lift confidence and mood.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Courtney works together with each person to identify goals and preferences, then adjusts methods over time based on what helps most. This makes therapy feel tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone calls can fit a break at work or when bandwidth is low, and messaging or chat can support quick check-ins and ongoing encouragement. These options help people keep therapy consistent even with busy or changing routines.
