About Courtney
Courtney Buchanan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut with 15 years of experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, career difficulties, and a broad range of mood and stress-related issues.
Courtney listens for the practical problems people bring and then talks through concrete next steps. Sessions emphasize open dialogue and collaborative planning. She draws on approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Jungian ideas, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy to guide the work.
People come to her for anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns, and help coping with life changes. She also addresses parenting stresses, anger, addictions, grief, intimacy-related concerns, sleep and eating issues, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she notes include adoption and foster care, blended family issues, codependency, and communication problems.
Her style is direct and practical. She helps clients identify patterns, set manageable goals, and practice skills between sessions. Conversations may explore personal history, present behavior, and meaning or narrative around difficult events.
Courtney uses a mix of short-term skills work and longer exploration depending on what a person needs. She notes that the first step is often the hardest and supports people through scheduling and the early sessions so they can focus on what matters next.

How her approaches translate to remote work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, and stress-related problems.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following what matters most to the person. It supports building insight, self-direction, and collaborative goal setting in session.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, and may blend approaches based on needs and preferences. That decision is made collaboratively in early meetings.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use conversation, guided exercises, and homework to keep progress moving between sessions.
