About Courtney
Courtney Cannon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, depression, and ADHD. She creates a relaxed, welcoming space where people can feel heard and understood. Courtney treats each person as the expert on their life and focuses on what matters most to them now.
She believes a trusting relationship between client and counselor is the foundation for any progress.
Background and approach
Early sessions focus on identifying priorities and making a simple, realistic plan. Courtney adapts her approach to fit each person’s goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Her work draws on practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy, along with person-centered principles that keep the client’s perspective central.
These techniques are used to help people spot unhelpful thoughts, rewrite limiting stories, and build day-to-day coping skills. Courtney’s background includes a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Carlow University and experience in school-based counseling and outpatient settings. That mix of settings informs her straightforward, supportive style.
She helps people facing a range of concerns beyond the main areas, including communication problems, body image, postpartum depression, and life-purpose questions. Sessions move at the client’s pace, with a focus on small, practical steps that fit busy lives.

Approaches that translate well to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on noticing and changing thought patterns and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety going. Online sessions can include practical exercises, thought records, and step-by-step plans to try between meetings.Narrative Therapy helps people reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their challenges. In teletherapy this often looks like talking through key scenes, identifying alternate storylines, and setting small goals that reflect a preferred narrative.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try techniques that match your needs, adjusting the plan as you go so it fits your life and what you want to change.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into work, caregiving, or school routines while keeping the focus on progress and practical skills.
