Courtney Dix, LCSW

Courtney Dix is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Kentucky with 11 years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, parenting demands, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She also addresses attachment concerns, body image, separation and divorce, and issues like guilt, shame, and loneliness.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She uses client-centered methods to listen first and follow the person's lead. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses.

Sessions tend to focus on practical steps and small experiments people can use between meetings. Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing are used to help with focus, building motivation, and managing strong emotions. She talks through concrete strategies for panic, trauma reactions, pregnancy-related concerns, and financial stress when those topics come up.

Courtney aims to create an environment where people feel able to name difficult feelings and try new ways of coping. She works with adults bringing concerns about parenting, relationships with parents or siblings, and the everyday strain of caring for a household. Her style is direct, steady, and focused on what helps in day-to-day life.

For someone juggling parenting responsibilities and emotional strain, sessions are framed to fit real life. The first meetings usually clarify priorities, set small goals, and choose practical skills to practice between sessions.
