About
I support people who feel overwhelmed by stress, conflict, or self-doubt, and I bring a steady, practical approach shaped by years of clinical work and my commitment to understanding how people grow and change.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 5 years of experience providing clinical care to children, adolescents, and adults. I work with individuals facing stress, anxiety, trauma histories, emotional regulation challenges, and strained family relationships. Many clients seek support during major life transitions or want help understanding patterns that keep them feeling stuck. My approach is practical, goal-oriented, and focused on steady progress.
I earned my master’s degree in mental health counseling from Thomas University. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and a direct, structured approach. I help clients build emotional control, reduce avoidance, and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, with experience supporting trauma-related stress, anxiety, and family conflict.
You deserve support that feels steady, respectful, and focused on what matters most to you. I provide an environment where experiences are taken seriously, goals are clearly defined, and progress continues between sessions. If you are ready to work toward meaningful change at a pace that fits your needs, I welcome you to reach out and begin the work together.

As a Black, queer woman and therapist with my own healing journey, I understand how identity, trauma, and survival shape the nervous system and how powerful it can be to feel truly seen and supported.
I’m a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience across schools, hospitals, community mental health, and research settings. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, identity exploration, life transitions, relationship concerns, and the ongoing impact of unresolved or overwhelming experiences.

I became a therapist because I realized how much earlier access to support could have changed the lives of my loved ones, and today I take a direct, empowering approach that helps adults recognize they already have the capacity to grow and heal.
Hi, I'm Courtney, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia dedicated to helping adults navigate life's challenges with clarity, confidence, and purpose. I primarily work with adults (18+) experiencing anxiety, depression, and adjustment-related challenges, including major life transitions, daily stress, and difficulty regaining balance. Many of the people I work with are seeking practical tools, self-awareness, and confidence to move forward. I take a direct, collaborative approach to therapy, helping clients recognize the strengths they already possess while developing strategies that support meaningful, lasting change.
I believe therapy works best when it's supportive and honest. My approach is direct, compassionate, and collaborative. Rather than focusing on what's "wrong," I help clients identify patterns keeping them stuck, build on their strengths, and develop practical strategies for everyday life. My goal is to help you leave therapy feeling confident and resilient.
I became a therapist because I realized how much earlier access to support could have changed the lives of my loved ones. That experience inspires my belief that no one should have to face life's challenges alone. Whatever brought you here, you deserve to feel heard, supported, and empowered. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.
Throughout my life, I’ve learned that all experiences are part of the journey. No matter the circumstances that come my way, I cho...

I strive to create a safe, supportive therapeutic environment where clients feel understood, empowered, and encouraged as they work toward meaningful growth and positive change.

My go-to approach for treating anxiety is CBT. I find the best benefit in CBT because it teaches clients how to cope with and reduce anxiety symptoms.
I teach the following tools in anxiety therapy: coping skills, interpersonal resolutions, and cognitive challenging.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in anxiety therapy when their mood is consistently stable.
Clients can supplement their time in anxiety therapy by engaging in self-care.
To prepare for your first anxiety therapy session, you can record your symptoms in order to discuss them with the therapist
Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Atlanta, GA can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day anxiety or your anxiety disorder.
Anxiety therapy involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Thriveworks Atlanta therapists will then work with you to determine where your anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
One of the best ways to deal with anxiety is to learn about your own anxiety: your symptoms, what triggers it, and what coping mechanisms have been effective in the past. When you learn what your anxiety is tied to, it can help you be mindful of what’s really happening as well as prevent and mitigate symptoms by processing and working through the issue in therapy. Other strategies that have been shown to help manage anxiety are meditation, challenging anxious thoughts, exercising, and journaling.
Common symptoms of anxiety include:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be incredibly effective in treating anxiety and anxiety disorders. Other effective techniques include exposure therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR therapy.
Anxiety therapy is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability. We suggest choosing the option that best suits your needs.
On average, people can tend to attend 15 to 20 session of anxiety therapy (five or more months). However, this number is heavily dependent on the type of anxiety that’s being treated and its severity, with many choosing to attend anxiety therapy for a longer period of time to ensure its effectiveness long-term.
Yes, it is worth going to therapy for anxiety. If you are struggling with regular anxious thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety disorder, you should seek expert anxiety help.
While it’s hard to accept, the truth is that we often make life harder than it has to be. We conjure up ideas in our head that we deem reality: our worries that we won’t make it to the airport on time or that we’ll get laid off because we were late to work (one time). We think of the worst case scenario and treat it as if it’s real. This leads to our bodies and our minds responding to these scenarios as if they’re real. We might experience an increased heart rate, sweaty palms, and a racing mind, as we ponder them.
That’s anxiety in a nutshell. Its excessive, uncontrollable worry about a range of events. Sometimes, we can learn to control this anxiety through journaling, meditation, and other self-care practices. But in other instances, we need a little help. Fortunately, there is a specific modality of therapy that focuses on helping people control and diminish their anxiety. It’s simply called anxiety therapy.
Thriveworks Atlanta, GA has a team of anxiety therapists who can help you calm your day to day anxiety. These therapists can also help you manage specific anxiety disorders, like obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and specific phobias. To start working with one of our skilled, caring anxiety therapists, you can reach us at (678) 804-7374. They can help you manage your anxiety symptoms and improve your overall mental health, in both in-person and online counseling sessions.
It is human nature to worry. There is no denying that, and there’s no way that we can completely stop worrying. However, when this worrying becomes excessive and brings with it harmful mental and physical symptoms, it’s an anxiety problem that should be addressed. These signs and symptoms can vary from one person to the next; however, here are common anxiety symptoms:
In addition to day to day anxiety about random events, which is referred to as generalized anxiety, there are other types of anxiety, too. Here are a few additional common anxiety disorders:

They’re here to guide and support you as you learn to control and reduce your anxiety. They can also help you to understand and manage a specific anxiety disorder, such as those detailed above.
