I'm Cortney, and I'm here to help! In my 12 or so years in the mental health field, my work has predominately been with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, complex trauma, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and ADHD. I continue to strive to provide gender affirming care and I am committed to creating a safe experience for members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. I am here to hold space with you.
I believe the foundation for success in therapy is rooted in the therapeutic alliance between therapist and client. In this partnership, I bring authenticity, empathetic understanding and compassion. My approach is intentional, eclectic, and strengths based to best suit your needs as we move through this journey together. It is my genuine belief that everyone is the expert on their own life, but often times we need a little bit of help to unlock our greatness. I hope to be that help for you.
Often, I will open a session by asking the question, "how can I be useful to you today?" My hope is that with each session the person I am working with leaves the session with something that helps create movement towards healing. Perhaps, a new skill, a fresh insight, a validating experience, or simply a safe space for an emotional release.
