Courtney Lougheed, LPC

(She/Her) |

Counselor:

Adults

Courtney’s priority with her clients is to not only help them do the deep work needed in the therapeutic process, but to offer them compassion, warmth, and—above all—a truly safe space to explore their emotions without judgment. She works collaboratively with clients to set the pace for therapy work, trusting their nervous systems to know when, and at what speed, to share and process personal vulnerable experiences.

While Courtney sees individuals struggling with a wide variety of issues, including those dealing with everyday stress and anxiety, she specializes in working with people who have experienced relational trauma, dysfunctional childhoods, PTSD, and shame, as well as members of the neurodivergent (ADHD/Autism), LGBTQIA+, and Polyamory and Consensual Non-Monogamy (CNM or ENM) communities.

She uses a blended approach in her practice, often pulling from DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), IPNB (Interpersonal Neurobiology), IFS (Internal Family Systems), and Mindfulness techniques, working with clients to use modalities that feel right for them.

One of the things Courtney enjoys most about her work is helping to instill a sense of autonomy and agency in others, showing clients how to embrace themselves and their own intuition.

Why Therapy?

After taking my first psychology course during my undergraduate career, I finally found my passion in understanding not only my own past, but helping others in their search for meaning and self-exploration. As someone who has spent the better half of a decade in therapy herself, I have had firsthand experience in the ways that therapy can not only transform the way we look at our past- but our present as well. To me, therapy is not only a process but an opportunity to celebrate the little successes that make our lives precious.

Professional Motivation

Helping others become their own therapist! I enjoy aiding people in realizing and believing in their potential, and seeing them bloom.

Education

M.A. Clinical Mental Health Counseling- University of Mary Hardin-Baylor. B.A. Psychology- St. Edward’s University

Hobbies

I enjoy camping, kayaking, singing, painting, movies and music. Playing with my dogs outside and watching the world through their eyes has taught me to live in the moment.

Previous Occupations

In the past I have worked as a executive assistant in the health field as well as in land development. I’ve also held multiple customer service positions.
