Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current patterns of relating. It helps clients explore connection styles and repair relational wounds so they can build healthier bonds and feel more secure in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy places the client’s experience at the center of the work, using empathy, nonjudgmental listening, and collaborative goal-setting to support personal growth and self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Cortney works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods from these approaches to create a personalized plan rather than relying on a single technique.

Online therapy with Cortney is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, reduce travel time, and connect with a licensed professional from convenient locations.
