About Cortney

Cortney Edwards is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of experience. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and patterns like people-pleasing and codependency. She also supports clients dealing with mood disorders, addictions, trauma, and life changes.

Her approach centers on building a steady therapeutic relationship. Sessions focus on listening first, then identifying what the client wants to change. Cortney uses straightforward conversation and practical skills rather than jargon. She helps clients notice patterns that keep them stuck and try new behaviors in small steps.

She draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships affect current ones. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and shift them into more balanced thinking. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term goals and track progress.

Mindfulness practices are offered to improve emotional regulation and attention. Cortney also uses client-centered methods to keep the client's priorities central during sessions. Together these approaches aim to make therapy a clear, manageable process rather than an open-ended task.

Her background includes private practice and work in school settings. Cortney often helps people who are parenting, navigating pregnancy or postpartum matters, or managing ADHD and impulsivity. Sessions are conducted in English and are geared toward adults in Texas.

How sessions work

How Cortney uses therapy methods online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships. It helps people notice repeated patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect trust and intimacy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cortney will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She will check what helps and adjust the plan as sessions progress so the client stays in an active role.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to suit a client's schedule and everyday life.
