Courtney McKinney

My communication style

In session, I communicate with honesty, warmth, and a touch of humor when it’s needed most. My tone is calm, supportive, and real. I don’t sugarcoat things, but I always speak with compassion and respect. I create a space where you can say the hard things, ask the messy questions, and feel fully seen without judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to becoming a therapist because I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, unseen, or stuck in survival mode. My own experiences taught me the power of being truly heard and supported, and I wanted to create that same space for others. This work isn’t just a career for me; it’s a calling.

My goals for you

I help clients set treatment goals by starting with what truly matters to them, not just symptom relief, but how they want to feel and live day to day. We break those goals down into realistic, meaningful steps that fit their life and pace. I offer support, accountability, and flexibility along the way, helping clients track their progress.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll focus on building a foundation of trust and understanding. We’ll go over some intake questions like your personal history, important life experiences, current challenges, and any past therapy or mental health treatment. I’ll also explain how therapy works and answer any questions you have.
