Hello. My name is Courtney, and I am a one of the Therapists at Hummingbird Therapy services. I am bio mom to a 6 year old, step-mom to a 14 & 17 year old and over the years have become friends and allies with my husband’s ex.
Life is busy but also abundant. While I adore our blended family, I also understand the hard work, love, and complexities a blended family and step-parenting can bring about. Working with individuals and couples through these unique experiences is a passion of mine. Together, using attachment theory and a relational framework, we will work to conceptualize your families’ unique structural changes, losses, and adjustments.
At the heart of my clinical practice is the belief in being collaborative, compassionate, and supportive of you always. I can sometimes bring about some humor, as I think it’s important to be able to find the light, but my goal is always to create a safe environment for you to risk and try something different. I work with individuals and couples.
