Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with trauma, mood shifts such as bipolar symptoms, and struggles with self-esteem or isolation. Kourtney pays attention to how past relationships and attachment patterns shape current behavior. Her work blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness techniques.
That means conversations that validate a person’s experience alongside straightforward tools to change thinking and behavior. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused methods help set realistic, short-term goals and keep momentum toward change.

She holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential in Georgia and has worked across a range of stress- and trauma-related concerns.

People starting therapy complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule appointments to fit their lives.
Kourtney aims to be steady, practical, and collaborative while clients learn new ways to cope and grow.
How Kourtney’s Methods Translate to Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the person’s goals; online sessions let Kourtney create that same respectful space through conversation and reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which works well over video or phone when practicing exercises together. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build calm; these brief practices can be guided in a live chat or during a video session.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kourtney collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and comfort with different formats. She adjusts pacing and strategies based on what helps someone make steady progress and feel more capable between sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls are useful for more in-depth conversation and practicing skills with visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is a concern. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick coping prompts, and ongoing support between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a daily routine and try approaches consistently.
