About Courtney

Courtney Ramsey is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with twelve years of clinical experience. She emphasizes an individualized, client-centered approach that shapes conversation and treatment to each person's unique circumstances, drawing on evidence-based methods such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, and mindfulness when appropriate.

Background and approach

Her work addresses a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, and LGBT-related issues. Clients may also seek support for grief, intimacy and sexual assault recovery, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting and career transitions, or symptoms related to bipolar disorder and compassion fatigue.

Additional focus areas include autism and Asperger syndrome, dissociation, domestic violence, impulsivity, social anxiety, and seasonal affective disorder. Ramsey describes her therapeutic stance as respectful, sensitive, and compassionate, and she collaborates with people to set goals and adjust strategies as needs evolve.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on building a collaborative relationship where the therapist listens closely and shapes treatment around each person's priorities and strengths; this approach helps with motivation, decision making, and feeling respected during change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, ADHD-related patterns, or stress in everyday life. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that uses structured processing to help reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and related symptoms when that approach is indicated.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works together with clients to identify which approaches fit their goals, preferences, and responses to treatment. This collaborative exploration allows techniques to be adjusted over time so care feels relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats let people attend from different locations, balance sessions with work or family responsibilities, and try different communication styles to see what supports progress best.
