More about Courtney
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCPC, LPC
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Missouri and Illinois. I have over 5 years of experience working in the Mental Health field. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including LGBTQIA+ issues, addiction, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting problems. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I treat the person, not the diagnosis. My approach is based on Narrative Theory but integrates other modalities as needed in each individual situation. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment focused on empowering you to be able to navigate life's inevitable challenges with confidence.
I look forward to connecting with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
