Courtney Lee, LCSW, LCSW — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Courtney!

Hey there! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker supporting adolescents and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and difficult life experiences. Together, we’ll explore patterns keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, and help you move toward healing and lasting change.

My focus

I support adolescents and adults who feel overwhelmed by trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, or low self-esteem. If past experiences or unhealthy patterns are keeping you stuck, we’ll work together to build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and create healthier ways of moving forward.

My approach

My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I use CBT, DBT-informed strategies, and EMDR to help you understand patterns, process emotions, and build practical coping skills. We’ll work at a pace that feels safe while creating meaningful, lasting change.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, genuine, and nonjudgmental. I listen with empathy, ask thoughtful questions, and offer honest feedback with gentle accountability. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable expressing yourself while moving at a pace that feels right for you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to social work by a desire to help people feel seen, heard, and supported during difficult seasons. Working with children, adolescents, adults, and families strengthened my passion for trauma-informed care and inspired me to create a space where clients can heal, grow, and build more fulfilling lives.

My goals for you

I help clients identify what they want to change and turn those needs into realistic, meaningful goals. Together, we break each goal into manageable steps, practice helpful strategies in and outside of sessions, and regularly review progress. We adjust the plan as needed while recognizing growth along the way.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll get to know one another and discuss what brought you to therapy, your concerns, strengths, and goals. I’ll ask questions about your history and current experiences while allowing you to share at a comfortable pace. Together, we’ll begin creating a treatment plan that fits your needs.
