About Kourtney
Kourtney Buchanan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and parenting strains. Sessions focus on practical steps you can use between meetings to reduce overwhelm and regain more control in daily life.
Kourtney uses a client-centered stance that keeps the conversation focused on the person in front of her. She listens for strengths and practical barriers, then helps set clear, achievable goals. That might mean small behavior changes, communication practice, or experimenting with new routines that lower reactivity and irritation.
She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new responses. Mindfulness methods are used to increase awareness of rising anger or anxiety and to practice calmer responses in the moment. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help people clarify values and take steps toward change.
Kourtney has a background in psychology and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She frames work around what a person wants to change and builds concrete strategies to get there. Sessions include talking, skills practice, and short exercises to use outside of sessions.
People who choose her often want straightforward guidance and doable steps. She helps with attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Language of sessions is English and practice is based in Georgia.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and can set their own goals. It helps when someone wants clear, personal goals and practical steps rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and tests small changes to see what helps. This approach is useful for anger that comes from automatic thoughts, work stress, or recurring conflicts. Mindfulness therapy teaches noticing rising tension and choosing a calmer response; it can reduce impulsive reactions and help with anxiety and mood swings.
Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which approaches to try based on current problems, goals, and what feels doable. Sessions can include talking, skills practice, and short exercises to do between meetings.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care while helping clients apply new skills in everyday settings.
