About Courtney
Courtney Dix is a licensed clinical social worker in Kentucky with 11 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and low self-esteem. She also supports those coping with life changes and financial worries. Her approach starts with listening and meeting each person where they are.
Courtney aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared. She focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions, along with moments of reflection during meetings. Conversations are paced to each person’s needs so the work feels manageable.
Her toolbox includes client-centered techniques that prioritize the person's goals and perspective. She also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT-based strategies for managing strong emotions. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are used to build awareness and momentum toward change.
Courtney has worked in the field for over a decade and brings that experience into everyday planning and problem solving. She supports people through life transitions like separation, pregnancy, or changes in work and finances. She helps with issues linked to attachment, body image, shame, and social anxiety.
If someone is ready to start, she asks a few questions about goals and schedules to find a good match. The initial steps are simple and focused on what the person hopes to change next.
How approaches shape online work and what to expect
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and perspective. It involves listening closely and following what matters most to the individual, which helps when sorting out stress, parenting concerns, or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides tools for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance. It can help people who need short-term skills for handling intense reactions or relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made and priorities change.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for check-ins when schedules are tight. Different formats also let people pick what feels most practical - shorter phone check-ins, longer video conversations, or other arrangements depending on what the therapist offers.
