About Courtney

Courtney Muzac is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with seven years of professional experience helping people address stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and self-esteem concerns.

Background and approach

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside somatic and mindfulness-based techniques to help clients notice unhelpful patterns, tend to inner wounds, and practice new ways of responding. Courtney emphasizes practical skills such as breath work and guided body awareness while also exploring emotional and relational patterns that maintain distress.

Her work attends to life transitions, family dynamics, ADHD-related challenges, and specific struggles like abandonment, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt, isolation, and questions of life purpose and self-love. Sessions are designed to be collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort, with the aim of building self-trust and clearer boundaries.

Courtney frames therapy as a gradual process of stepping away from protective masks and rebuilding a more authentic sense of self. She practices in Georgia and holds the credentials LCSW and CSW, reflecting her clinical training and licensure.

Her approach combines evidence-informed strategies with compassionate presence to support clients seeking meaningful, sustainable change.

Integrating Skill-Based Approaches with Online Care

Courteny uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete skills for coping with anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy is woven into sessions to support present-moment awareness and calm, helping people notice thoughts and sensations without judgment and build steady habits for managing difficult emotions.

The choice of approach is collaborative: the therapist will work with each client to determine which strategies fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may combine CBT exercises, mindful breathing, and brief somatic techniques over time as goals evolve, and adjustments are made based on what feels most effective for the individual.

Online therapy here is offered through flexible formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allows clients to access care from home or other convenient locations. These options support varied schedules and communication styles, making it easier to attend regular sessions and practice skills in real-life settings between meetings.
