About Kourtney
Kourtney Buchanan is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Georgia with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She uses a practical, person-centered style that looks at current problems and concrete steps to change them. Sessions emphasize noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, and trying different ways of responding. She helps people set realistic goals and build skills to manage symptoms and daily challenges.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Albany State University and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University. Over seven years she has worked with people dealing with family problems, attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, communication problems, and caregiver stress.
In session she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that affect mood and behavior. She also uses client-centered methods and mindfulness techniques to support self-reflection and awareness. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused strategies appear when clients want to make specific, measurable changes.
Kourtney aims to help clients translate insights into everyday actions. She talks through simple tools for coping with overwhelming feelings, managing cravings, improving communication, and navigating difficult life transitions. Readers should confirm session formats before booking to match their needs.
How Kourtney uses therapies online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective, listening without judgement and helping people articulate goals. It is useful when someone needs to understand their feelings and clarify next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses exercises to change patterns that worsen anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kourtney will review needs, goals, and preferences with the client and suggest which methods to try first. She works collaboratively to adjust techniques based on what helps in practice rather than sticking to a single method.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or remove travel time. They can also let clients use mindfulness or CBT worksheets during a live session. Ask about available session formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so practical arrangements match your routine.
