About Courtney
Courtney Mayfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of experience. She works with adults managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, relationship strain, and parenting concerns. She also supports people facing career shifts, mood disorders, ADHD, and life changes related to adoption and foster care.
Courtney uses practical talk and active listening to help people name what feels off and try new ways of responding. She draws on client-centered work to keep sessions focused on each person's goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices are used to change unhelpful thoughts and reduce emotional reactivity.
Sessions often include exercises to notice physical signs of anger, track triggers, and test small behavior changes between meetings. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants to make a change but feels stuck. Solution-focused steps help set short-term goals and measure progress in clear ways.
Her background includes work with families on attachment, blended-family issues, and parenting stress, and with individuals coping with trauma, postpartum depression, and obsessive thinking. She helps people sort through guilt, shame, and communication breakdowns that feed anger and resentment.
Courtney frames work around real-life routines and skills people can practice outside sessions. She encourages concrete experiments rather than only talking about feelings. People typically leave sessions with at least one practical step to try before the next appointment.
How her approaches translate to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Online sessions can include practical CBT homework such as tracking triggers, testing different responses to anger, and reviewing results together. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity. Those practices can be coached in session and then practiced between meetings to notice changes in mood and impulse control.Client-Centered Therapy keeps the focus on the person's goals and experiences. In an online setting this means sessions are collaborative - the therapist and client decide together which skills or experiments to try next. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work, and the therapist will help figure out what fits the client's needs, preferences, and goals.
Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can try skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can guide practical exercises, homework, and goal tracking in a way that aims to fit everyday life without promising a particular result.
