About Courtney

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of clinical experience, Courtney Sawyer focuses on stress, anxiety, LGBT issues, self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. She helps people who are navigating life changes and those looking for more motivation and confidence. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices within Texas.

Courtney likes straightforward conversations. She invites clients to talk about their thoughts and feelings and aims to reduce shame or judgment in the room. She emphasizes practical steps people can try between sessions to test what helps and what does not.

Her work covers a range of personal and identity-related concerns, including gender dysphoria, LGBTQ topics, and issues common among young adults. She also supports people with neurodiversity-related concerns such as autism and Asperger syndrome, and those navigating non-traditional relationship structures like polyamory or kink cultures.

Courtney pays attention to mood and motivation, addressing depression, low self-esteem, jealousy, and problems with self-love. She also supports clients confronting intellectual disability-related concerns and people seeking forgiveness or processing difficult life events.

People who choose to work with her will find brief, practical focus in sessions and collaborative planning for next steps. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform's online process. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Sheet 2

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions

From her biography, Courtney uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. This method breaks problems into specific thoughts and behaviors, then tests small changes to see what helps.

Another common approach emphasizes skill building for emotional regulation and daily functioning. This involves practical exercises for managing stress, improving motivation, and increasing confidence through repeated practice and small goals.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with the client and adapt methods as needed. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to prioritize and how to measure progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when a quick conversation will help. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and homework to suit remote work and everyday life.
