- LPC, LCPC
I am a professional counselor licensed in Texas. I have been working with clients from all walks of life for the last 6 years. I believe in meeting you where you are and won't have preconceived ideas about what topics should be the focus of your sessions. It is my goal for you to get the most out of the process, it is your time and you are investing in yourself. In my opinion one of the most important aspects of the counseling process is the relationship between myself and you. I want you to be able to trust me and feel my encouragement and compassion for you. I will work alongside you delve into past hurts in order to heal and be relinquished from those burdens as much as possible.
I have worked with clients presenting an array of concerns including anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder, parenting, relationship issues, kids, adolescents, life transitions, LGBTQ, prenatal and postnatal concerns. My counseling experience is in a private practice as well as a school setting. Whether you are experiencing some current struggles or just want to focus on personal growth, I would be honored to help out in any way possible.
I commend you for beginning this journey, you are courageous for searching for help. I am here to answer any questions that you may have about me or what to expect from the counseling process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Mrs. Edwards is compassionate and empathetic-- she truly listens to my concerns. She tries to make a personal connection with her clients which is essential in building trust. I recommend her whole heartedly!
Cortney has been great so far!
love her she’s great!!!!
Cortney is great! Empathetic, great listener and provides several options to help out!
I have been in therapy with Courtney Edwards for a year now I can say she’s very awesome at her job. She listens ver intently, and empathizes while leading you through exploration of how to solve the problem. You can tell that she truly wants you to succeed and be happy. I was very nervous to start therapy, but talk therapy with Courtney has made me feel empowered towards moving out of my anxiety and fears and into better decision making for my life. Definitely worth it.
Courtney makes opening up about myself much easier than my previous therapists. She helps me to feel better about being me, and has given some great insight that I have not heard previously.
Courtney Edwards has really helped me, listened to me, and asked some great questions when it comes to getting to the root of my problems without judgement! Love her and happy with her as counselor
Courtney has been so kind, patient, and compassionate. She is very knowledgeable in what she does and allows the conversation to flow naturally. She really listens and offers healthy perspectives. She checks on me regularly and never pushes anything. I can tell Courtney cares about me (and from the looks of it, her other clients as well). I can be standoffish and she is allowing the conversation and professional relationship to grow organically. I really enjoy working with her and wish we could meet for longer each week!
She's wonderful! Compassionate, understanding, funny, and light-hearted. She asks questions that make me come up with my own answers and offers helpful insight about patterns.
Courtney has been instrumental in helping me work through my stress and traumas. She listens to me and my concerns and give me helpful advice regarding how to address the issues at hand. I really appreciate the support she's been providing to me over the last couple months and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking mental health help.
I cannot speak any more highly of my experience with Cortney than I already do! I didn’t know what to expect from this, I just knew I needed someone to help me navigate all the never-ending thoughts running through my head. I didn’t know what to expect when I first started, but I sure am happy with how it’s going! I highly recommend working Cortney!
Courtney helped me understand and get through a difficult time in my life. I was going through a lot of change and a tragedy and she helped me figure out ways to combat it and get through it. Didn’t come off as judgmental, and was easy to open up to.
I am so grateful for Cortney’s expertise and ability to challenge me on a regular basis.

Courtney has been very attentive and has helped me focus on the specific things I wanted to work on.

Courtney is a great listener, supportive and compassionate.
