About Courtney
Courtney Wilson is a licensed independent social worker with 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people navigate addictions, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, and anger. Her approach is respectful and straightforward, and she aims to hear each person's story in their own words.
Courtney draws on practical methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing to help people change unhelpful patterns. She also uses trauma-focused approaches when past hurt is getting in the way of day-to-day life.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and focused on realistic steps a person can try between meetings. Her background includes work with sexual abuse survivors and a range of related concerns such as grief, intimacy struggles, self-harm, and substance use. She also supports people facing family problems, parenting stress, and life transitions like divorce or adoption and foster care issues.
Courtney explains things clearly and avoids clinical jargon. She emphasizes respect, compassion, and unconditional positive regard while working with each person. That means practical guidance paired with attention to what matters most to the client.
She practices in Ohio as an LISW, which stands for Licensed Independent Social Worker. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. If someone wants a direct and steady approach to change, she can help map out a plan and next steps.

How her approaches work online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. In sessions she helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or anger. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person's own reasons for change. It is useful when someone is unsure about cutting back substance use, changing habits, or making other life shifts because it draws out personal goals and strengths.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past attempts, and preferences. Together they decide whether CBT, motivational strategies, trauma-focused work, or a mix makes the most sense for moving forward.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow for flexibility. Video is useful when nonverbal cues matter, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text support quick check-ins or brief exercises between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on practical change.
