Courtney Grossnickle, who often goes by CC, is a licensed counselor practicing in Maryland with authorization to work in Virginia as well. She brings 10 years of experience across settings such as crisis counseling, in-home therapy, family therapy, hospital-based care, and foster care.
Throughout her career she has worked primarily with people facing depression, anxiety, mood disorders, conduct disorders, co-occurring disorders, personality disorders and family conflict, among other challenges. She describes her approach as eclectic, tailoring treatment plans to each person’s needs and collaborating closely with clients to set and reach therapeutic goals.
She is licensed to practice in Maryland as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and in Virginia as a Licensed Professional Counselor. Courtney places a high value on protecting clients' rights within the counseling relationship and emphasizes listening as a central part of her work. Rather than offering quick advice, she focuses on understanding each person’s concerns and then working together to move toward greater well-being and peace.
Courtney aims to create an environment where clients feel comfortable, accepted, and cared for. Helping others has been a long-standing passion for her, and she approaches therapy with that commitment and empathy.
Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or adapting to life changes, online therapy is generally just as effective as in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can meet with therapists in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That adaptability makes it simpler to integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Licensed professionals provide care through these remote options, and if someone wants a different therapist, they are free to make a change. Online therapy offers a practical way to get consistent support for everyday mental health challenges while fitting treatment into real life.
