Life is a journey best told by the author. My story has been told under the title of a therapist, wife, mom, daughter, volunteer, and even a Girl Scout leader. All those titles have given me life experiences that have helped craft a pretty amazing story. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 9 years of therapeutic work experience. My clinical expertise in helping clients with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma/abuse, foster care/adoption, and parenting issues. Knowing that you are the expert author of your story, I am here to help guide you along your journey by growing your strengths, relationships, and resources to assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Thank you for your courage to sign up for therapy and for allowing me to get to know your story.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session will include introductions, confidentiality agreement, going over your intake questions, setting goals for therapy, and learning a mindfulness technique to help ease your mind.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Working with parents and families is one of my best specialties. Sometimes pre-teens and teenagers do not feel heard, or parents struggle to find common ground or understanding. These cases are my specialty because whether I am working with the kids or the parents, finding a solution or teaching a family coping skills to help ease the strain on the family is one of my biggest passions in life.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Parents, teenagers, LGBTQIA+, trauma based services, adoption and foster care
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Using CBT I help my clients learned to hold new pathways to accessing their memories and reframe the way you think and feel about your life and choices.

I just had my initial intake evaluation with Cortnie and it was so cathartic to speak with someone who genuinely had stake in my wellbeing and valued my history. I can't wait to look back months from now and experience the progress I've made with her!

I enjoy our talks. Its nice to just be able to vent and talk without feeling judged or leashed. Cortnie is amazing. Give her a dang raise.

This was my first appointment with Cortnie and she made me feel safe and supported right away. I know that this is going to be a great fit with her experience and knowledge to help me work through my struggles.
