About Courtney
Courtney Brooke Sergent-Fox is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, career worries, and major life changes. Her work also covers family concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue.
She uses straightforward conversations to clarify what feels hard and which small steps might help. Sessions aim to make problems easier to name and manage. People come with concerns about body image, communication problems, or social anxiety, and she focuses on practical ways to change patterns that aren’t working.
Courtney draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. She also uses EMDR when past events keep interfering, and incorporates mindfulness techniques to reduce overwhelm. Motivational Interviewing can help when someone wants to change but struggles to get started.
Her style is direct and collaborative. She treats each person as the expert on their own life, and builds on existing strengths rather than starting from scratch. Sessions typically focus on clear goals and skills that can be tried between meetings.
Courtney practices in Kentucky and conducts work in English. She does not accept international clients. To begin, she asks people to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button. The site subscription model is used for sessions and can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then tests small alternative actions to see what works. It is useful for anxiety, stress, workplace issues, and communication problems.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, focuses on processing memories that continue to cause distress. It can reduce the intensity of memories that interfere with daily life and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person’s needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made based on what helps most.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy home or work day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist through the matching process about practical concerns and which session arrangement would fit into everyday life.
