02 · In Courtney's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
Courtney is committed to creating a welcoming, relaxed, and supportive environment where clients feel safe and understood. She believes that a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship is the foundation of effective counseling. Courtney approaches therapy with the belief that clients are the experts in their own lives, and her role is to help them identify, clarify, and prioritize their needs in a way that feels empowering and meaningful.
She recognizes that past experiences can influence present challenges, yet she works collaboratively with clients to help them reshape their narratives and move toward a future that is not defined by negativity or limitation. Courtney uses an integrative counseling approach tailored to each client’s unique goals and concerns. During initial sessions, she and the client work together to identify priority areas and develop a personalized treatment plan.
Courtney incorporates techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy to support clients in making progress at their own pace. She provides individual counseling for adolescents and adults navigating emotional, behavioral, and social challenges. In addition, Courtney offers couples counseling utilizing the Gottman Method to strengthen communication, connection, and relationship satisfaction.
Courtney earned her Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Carlow University. Since graduating, she has dedicated her career to supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, and concerns related to women’s mental health. Her professional background includes working with adolescents in a school-based counseling program, followed by providing outpatient treatment for individuals navigating substance use challenges.

03 · What happens next
Courtney practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Courtney's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Courtney at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Courtney is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Courtney.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
