Courtney Moody , LCSW

Courtney Moody is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and offers coaching for life transitions. Her work often addresses body image, attachment and relationship patterns, and struggles with control and codependency.

She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and what can change in day-to-day life. She aims to help people build clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and coping tools that fit their routines.

Courtney draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. That might mean focusing on trauma recovery, relapse prevention for substance concerns, or learning new ways to manage anxiety. She works at a steady pace and adjusts methods to match each person's goals.

Her background includes long-term clinical experience across a range of complex presentations, including co-occurring difficulties and sexual health topics such as BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture. She supports people working through family of origin issues, first responder stress, and midlife shifts.

Courtney practices from Kentucky as a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy button.

Approaches and how online therapy works

Courtney uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. Trauma-focused work helps people process stressful events and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life. Approaches for addiction and relapse prevention concentrate on identifying triggers, building coping strategies, and creating step-by-step plans to support recovery. She also uses skills-based anxiety work to teach breathing, grounding, and behavioral strategies that reduce intense worry and improve functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist discusses goals, reviews what has helped before, and together they try methods that match the person's needs and preferences. Adjustments are made over time so the work stays relevant and effective for the individual's situation.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to check in between sessions or to communicate in writing, which some people find easier for organizing thoughts. These options provide flexibility to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
