Courtney received her BS in Psychology with an emphasis in psychological services from Penn State University. Over the last 18 years, she has worked in various settings including inpatient, case management, partial hospitalization, home/school/community based programs and her favorite area, outpatient. She is experienced with all ages - from as young as three to the geriatric population. Due to her friendly demeanor and belief that a strong patient/provider rapport is key to the therapeutic process, she has successfully treated a wide array of mental health diagnoses including but not limited to anxiety, substance abuse, depression, Bipolar Disorder, adjustment disorders, gender dysphoria and trauma. Focusing on clients’ strengths fosters independence and increased self confidence rather than complete reliance on a clinician. She looks forward to providing an experience that creates an optimistic and hopeful outlook for treatment.
