Message from COURTNEY
​​
Our journey through life is complex and for every person, will come with many successes, triumphs, joys, and pleasures as well as challenges, concerns, and problems. I believe it is important to view the whole person, within the context of their relationships, family, community and society to gain a better understanding of all that is helpful or unhelpful along this journey.
I have been honored to support this journey for individuals of all ages when faced with challenges and concerns related to life stressors, learning differences, parenting, school or work struggles, social or relationship challenges. I often work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression or other mental health concerns as we work through a process of developing an identity that they can be proud of. I don't follow a rigid formula. I would be honored to work with you to find out just what works for YOU!

​
​​​​​Workshops and presentations are available on a variety of topics and intersecting needs from mental health, neurodiversity, behavior, and narrative practices. I tailor speaking engagements to the needs of the attendees and would love to speak with you to see how we might support your work or your organization, in-person or virtually:
Many therapists, educators, and behavioral health providers feel unqualified to work with neurodiversity, especially autism. You likely have the skills and just need support to locate what will work for you. I offer workshops, professional development trainings, one time consultations, or on-going support for your work with neurodivergent individuals or groups.

My Philosophy
I most closely align with Narrative Therapy or Narrative practices which believes that
“the person is not the problem. the problem is the problem”.
I seek to understand your unique story and the context of your experiences, concerns, and joys. I also believe that clients often have a great deal of knowledges and skills and that therapist's role is to guide clients to connect with these and new emerging skills in order to recognize the multiple possibilities that can exist. My experience in neurological healthcare, behavioral, educational, and vocational settings also supports me to approach client concerns holistically. I have a breadth of experiences and training that are the backdrop for the ways I engage clients when navigating a variety of concerns such as anxiety, depression, relational concerns or challenges, etc. while always attending to social and cultural factors that contribute to or create barriers. In the first couple of sessions, I will be asking a lot of 'getting to know you questions' and by the third session on average, we will develop your specific goals together.
Good Faith Estimate
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost
Under the law, health care providers need to provide clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
-
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
-
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
-
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
-
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
