Courtney Porter, LCSW

Courtney Porter is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas and Arkansas with 10 years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and people coping with life changes. Her approach focuses on practical steps that fit everyday schedules and responsibilities.

Courtney uses concrete methods drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. She also brings narrative therapy techniques to conversations, helping clients tell the stories they carry and see other possibilities. Mindfulness practices are used when helpful to slow down strong feelings and build simple coping skills.

In sessions she keeps things straightforward and goal-oriented. Clients can expect to set small, measurable goals and check progress each meeting. The work emphasizes skills that transfer to daily life such as brief thought records, grounding exercises, and short behavior experiments.

Courtney has practiced in clinic and community settings over the past decade. That range has shaped a focus on clear planning and realistic steps rather than lengthy academic explanations. She aims to make therapy fit around work, family, and other commitments.
