Courtney McNamee
I earned my degree from University of New England in 2016, and I have experience working in the substance use field, supporting individuals in understanding patterns, building healthier coping strategies, and working toward long-term stability. My approach is supportive, direct, and practical. I meet clients where they are and help them build real-life skills for managing emotions, making healthier choices, and gaining a stronger sense of control over their lives. Whether someone is navigating difficult environments, major transitions, or just feeling lost, we work together to create meaningful, lasting change.
I have a strong interest in supporting youth who may feel overlooked, misunderstood, or disconnected from traditional systems, and I strive to create a space where they feel seen and valued.
