01About Kourtney

Kourtney Buchanan is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people regain balance and move forward. She uses a person-centered approach that starts with listening and identifying strengths. Sessions aim to set clear, achievable goals so people can feel more in control of day-to-day life.

She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness techniques are used to bring attention back to the present moment and reduce overwhelm.

Background and approach

Motivational interviewing can help when someone is unsure about making a change and needs support finding reasons to try. Over seven years of practice in Georgia have given her experience with stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. She also addresses relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, addiction, trauma and abuse, and mood issues such as bipolar.

Additional focus areas include attachment wounds, codependency, and family of origin problems. In a session she helps people name the problem, set small goals, and practice new ways of coping. Conversations are direct but compassionate, and the work is practical and paced to the person's needs.

Progress is measured by what people can do differently between meetings. Kourtney earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Albany State University and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University. She holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - in Georgia and conducts sessions in English.

04Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered work focuses on listening and building from a person's strengths. In this approach the therapist follows the person's lead, clarifies goals, and helps shape a plan that fits their life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors together and teaches specific skills for managing anxiety, depression, and upsetting moods.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, try methods that suit those goals, and adjust the plan if something is not working. That shared decision-making helps match techniques to real needs and preferences over time.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for most standard therapy work and for reading body language. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow for quick check-ins, ongoing support between meetings, or a shorter format that can fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
