Hi, I’m Courtney. I want more for you than just getting through another week. I know reaching out can feel overwhelming, but you’ve already taken the first step. With a background in high-stress environments, I specialize in helping people find calm in the middle of their personal storms.

I have specific experience supporting parents of children with difficult behaviors, including those in biological, foster, or kinship roles.

I work from a Christian perspective, though faith is only integrated into our sessions if you choose.

Relationships can change over time—but feeling disconnected doesn't have to be the end of the story.

I work with adults who want to better understand themselves and create healthier, more connected relationships. I have a particular interest in supporting people in long-term relationships who are navigating communication challenges, recurring conflict, emotional disconnection, changes in intimacy, or the feeling that they’ve become more like roommates than partners.

Therapy can be a space to slow down and understand what is happening beneath the surface. Together, we'll explore self-worth, communication, emotional and physical intimacy, boundaries, conflict patterns, emotional regulation, and coping skills. We’ll also look at how past experiences and beliefs about yourself may influence the way you communicate, connect, set boundaries, or respond when you feel hurt or misunderstood.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. I integrate CBT, mindfulness, acceptance-based approaches, and trauma-informed therapy to help you develop greater self-awareness and the tools to create meaningful change.

You don't have to wait until your relationship is falling apart to seek support. Therapy can help you reconnect—with yourself, with your partner, and with the kind of relationship you want to create.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to making high-quality mental health care accessible to everyone, especially individuals in underserved and rural communities. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in homes, assisted living facilities, group homes, and through telehealth.

I believe mental health care should be compassionate, collaborative, and free of judgment. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, grief, or another mental health concern, we’ll work together to build a treatment plan that fits your life, not someone else’s.

I combine evidence-based medicine with a whole-person approach, recognizing that sleep, stress, relationships, physical health, and daily habits all play an important role in emotional well-being. My priority is helping you feel better while empowering you with the tools to thrive long after our appointments.

Sometimes your mind understands what’s happened, but your body still holds the impact. I’m trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, approaches that help gently process those deeper layers. My work integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to support nervous system regulation, so change doesn’t just feel intellectual, it feels real, grounded, and lasting.

You might feel misunderstood, overwhelmed by mood changes, or unsure how to navigate relationships in a way that feels natural or fulfilling. Whether you’re dealing with depression, bipolar patterns, or feeling “different” in social or emotional spaces, it can be exhausting trying to figure it out on your own.

I work with adults, including neurodivergent individuals, who want to better understand themselves, improve relationships, and feel more steady and connected in their daily lives. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, supported, and able to be fully yourself.
