About Kourtney
Kourtney Buchanan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, addictions, trauma and abuse, and attention-related challenges such as ADHD.
She uses a client-centered outlook to help people identify where they are and where they want to be. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She emphasizes noticing symptoms, building strengths, and learning skills that fit daily life.
Kourtney draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses mindfulness practices to help with stress and to increase moment-to-moment awareness. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas guide brief goal-setting when people need direction or momentum.
In practice she talks through current concerns, patterns from family of origin, and relationship communication. She helps clients who are coping with grief, separation, caregiver strain, codependency, and substance-related problems to set small, manageable objectives.
Her training includes a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Albany State University. Kourtney works with adults in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. To start, readers should confirm current session options before scheduling.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspectives. It involves listening, reflecting, and helping people set their own aims for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to reduce stress and notice reactions without getting swept away.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels doable, and then collaborate on a plan. That plan can change as progress is made or new issues come up.
The biography does not list specific online session types, so confirm available formats before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let someone choose whether to use video or lower-bandwidth options depending on what works best for them and their schedule.
