Meet Courtney, Mental Health Professional
You don’t have to have it all figured out to start.
I’m a Milwaukee-based Counseling Student Intern specializing in life transitions, anxiety & school challenges for BIPOC teen girls and young adult women.
Lately, it feels like you’re carrying a lot:
You’re overwhelmed, feeling the pressure to keep it together, and looking for a space where you can be yourself.
I’m Courtney a counseling student intern in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at The Practice MKE who supports teens girls and young adult women experiencing anxiety, self-esteem concerns, life transitions and school challenges.
Who I Work With
Courtney provides a warm, supportive space for teens and young adult women to explore life’s challenges, better understand themselves, and develop skills that support their emotional well-being.

My Approach
My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while learning practical strategies to manage anxiety and navigate daily challenges with more confidence.
Training & Supervision
I am currently completing my master’s degree in counseling and practicing under the supervision of Esperanza Winters, LPC.
Therapy with me is…
01 Supportive
You’re not doing this alone. You have someone who listens, helps you sort through what’s going on, and works with you to build skills that actually make life feel more manageable.
02 Fun
Therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy or intimidating all the time. Sessions can include lightness, warmth, and moments of laughter, even while working on hard things. It feels natural, not awkward or stiff.
03 Safe
You can share what you’re really thinking and feeling without fearing shame, pressure, or being pushed too fast. Sessions are steady, respectful, and paced with your consent. You know what to expect, your boundaries are honored, and the space is protected by confidentiality (with the standard legal limits).
04 Nonjudgemental
You don’t have to edit yourself or pretend to have it all together. You can talk about your thoughts, worries, habits, or mistakes without feeling shamed, rushed, or criticized.
