Evidence-Based Approaches, Made Accessible Online
Marika Courtney draws from several evidence-based approaches to help clients work through stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions in a practical, supportive way.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It can be especially helpful for identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, building coping skills, and creating small, steady changes that add up over time. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes learning to make room for difficult thoughts and emotions while taking steps toward what matters most. It often supports people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or pulled off course by stress and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and ongoing relationship experiences shape patterns in adulthood, which can be useful when navigating communication issues, relationship strain, or concerns rooted in abandonment and connection.
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and finding the right approach is part of the process. Marika collaborates with clients to clarify goals, understand what has and has not worked before, and choose strategies that fit their needs and preferences.
Online therapy can make consistent support easier to maintain. Sessions may take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexible options that can fit around work, parenting, and other responsibilities.
