About Courtney
Courtney White is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in New York with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self‑esteem, and depression. Courtney also notes experience supporting clients who live with codependency, substance misuse, dissociation, and intellectual disability.
She began her clinical work in upstate New York, spent time practicing in Las Vegas, and returned to New York in 2017 to focus on state licensure and practice. That path gave her a range of experiences across settings and client needs. She says she has personal experience with depression and uses that perspective in her work.
In sessions she keeps explanations direct and practical. She listens to what a person is managing now and helps identify small, achievable steps to change patterns that cause distress. Conversations can cover setting boundaries, handling someone else’s moods or drinking, managing anxiety, and rebuilding confidence after hard times.
Courtney adapts the pace to what each person can manage. She works with co‑occurring issues such as addiction and cognitive or intellectual differences alongside mood and relationship concerns. Her approach aims to help people notice patterns, try different responses, and practice new habits between sessions.
To begin, she recommends completing the platform questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How evidence‑based approaches fit online
Many therapists draw from standard evidence‑based techniques to address anxiety, depression, and relationship patterns. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; they help with anxiety, low mood, and reactions to stress by teaching practical skills and small experiments to try between sessions. Trauma‑informed strategies pay attention to safety, pacing, and how past events affect current reactions; they help people make sense of difficult memories and reduce overwhelming responses.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit the issue and the person’s pace. Adjustments happen over time based on what helps and what feels manageable.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check‑ins when that is helpful. Confirm current session options when you sign up so you know how sessions will be scheduled and what to expect.
