Courtney’s passion for therapy began in her teens after experiencing the healing of psychotherapy firsthand. After completing her undergraduate degree in Psychology, she worked with homeless youth in London. This experience illuminated systemic discrimination and reinforced her belief in approaching all patients without judgment. Following this she worked in the tech industry, where she observed the toll that demanding workloads took on people. She felt more drawn to discussing her clients' well-being than the work itself. Inspired by this realization, she returned to school to pursue psychotherapy at Columbia University. Having lived in 4 different countries, Courtney understands the complexities of starting over in New York City.
