About Courtney

Courtney Towne is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Oregon with seven years of direct clinical experience. She combines practical problem solving with a relaxed, down-to-earth style. Parents reading this will find straightforward help for everyday stresses and relationship strains.

Courtney focuses on parenting, stress, anxiety, self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family concerns, workplace strain, and questions about life purpose. Her additional focus areas include blended family issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, and multicultural concerns.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and make small, doable changes. Sessions tend to be plainspoken and goal-oriented rather than academic.

Courtney has broader experience supervising clinicians and running counseling programs in addition to direct practice. That background informs how she structures sessions and sets achievable steps between meetings. She prefers a relaxed tone and sometimes uses light humor to ease tension while addressing serious problems.

People who come to her can expect direct feedback, collaborative planning, and concrete tools for coping with life changes. She works in English and is based in Oregon. She does not accept international clients.

BHow sessions work

How her approaches work online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and shifting behaviors that keep problems in place. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-esteem by breaking problems into small, manageable steps.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people clarify what matters to them and find their own reasons to change. It can be useful for building commitment around parenting strategies, work goals, or lifestyle changes.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, Motivational Interviewing, or a mix fits best based on goals and daily realities. That decision is revisited as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier by reducing travel and allowing appointments during breaks or between obligations. They also allow shorter check-ins or a mix of session lengths to match a client's routine. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday schedules without promising a particular format.
