About Kourtney
Kourtney Buchanan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, addictions, ADHD, and related struggles. Kourtney focuses on helping people recognize patterns that hold them back and build practical skills to manage day-to-day life.
Kourtney uses a person-centered approach that centers the client's voice and priorities. She listens for strengths and goals, then helps translate those into concrete steps. Sessions often include clear goal-setting and short-term strategies to address what feels most urgent first.
She also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Mindfulness techniques are used to help with emotion regulation and staying present during stressful moments. Motivational interviewing is part of her method when someone is weighing change or feeling unsure about next steps.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Albany State University and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University. Kourtney presents information plainly and focuses on actionable skills so people can practice between sessions and notice progress.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's perspective and priorities. It involves listening closely, identifying strengths, and using those strengths to set practical goals that fit daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with actions that lead to different results. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and relationship patterns that repeat.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kourtney will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense based on goals and what feels manageable. She adapts techniques as sessions progress so the plan reflects the client's needs and preferences.
Confirm current session format options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling around work, caregiving, or travel. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when life is busy, and let people engage without needing to commute. Ask about practical scheduling and session length when setting up a first appointment so sessions fit into everyday routines.
