How Cortney's Approaches Work Online

CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses clear exercises and homework so people can practice new ways of coping between sessions. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cortney works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. She will review options and adjust the plan as progress is made so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy with Cortney can happen by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and learning new skills together. Phone sessions can work when video isn't possible and require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when someone prefers writing things out. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and daily life.
