We help you align your energy with your authentic self to uncover connection and purpose.

My partner and I have been working with Courtney for a few years now, and she has played a meaningful role in helping our relationship continue to grow in a positive direction. She brings a wonderful balance of compassion, humor, and thoughtful guidance to every session. I’ve worked with several individual therapists in the past, and finding the right fit hasn’t always been easy. Courtney, however, has felt like the right fit for us from the very beginning. We’re truly grateful for the support, understanding, and perspective she brings to our conversations.

Working with Ava Lange has been truly life-changing. She has a calm and reassuring presence that immediately put me at ease, and I always feel heard and respected in our sessions. What stands out most is how practical her guidance is. Instead of just talking through issues, Ava gives me tools I can actually use, whether it’s ways to manage my emotions in the moment or new perspectives that help me reframe situations. Those little changes have made a huge difference in my day-to-day life. Each session feels productive without ever being overwhelming, and I leave with a sense of progress and motivation to keep going. If you’re looking for a therapist who is supportive, down-to-earth, and genuinely helpful, Ava is a wonderful choice.

Courtney is an incredibly thoughtful and skilled couples therapist. She helped identify our unproductive patterns that were fueling recurring arguments and provided tools to help us improve communication and break those cycles. She is balanced and diplomatic in her approach, which made it easy for both of us to be open and honest without feeling judged or blamed. She has a great sense for when to guide the conversation and when to give space for meaningful dialogue to unfold naturally. Over time, sessions became less about resolving conflict and more about working through deeper topics with her support. Courtney’s insight and steady presence made a lasting impact, and we highly recommend for anyone seeking experienced and compassionate help with their relationship.

We went through several therapists trying to find someone that clicked with us. After a few months we met Courtney. Courtney has consistently been a source of stability in the life of my wife and I. It feels as though she has helped us grow as a couple, and has helped guide us through life’s transitions and challenges. We’re incredibly grateful for her continued weekly support. She’s attentive, thoughtful, warm, and takes time to find a strategy that works for each unique situation. I cannot recommend her enough.

Courtney has helped me tremendously. Her office makes you feel very comfortable. When I first started sessions with her, I was not in a good place emotionally & doubting if I could get back to where I was a few years ago. Courtney is a great listener, she is caring and her attention to detail is amazing. She gave me the tools I needed to get myself out of being depressed and thinking I was never going to get the jobs I was seeking. I had to take a break due to the lack of work. But a month or two after I had to pause my sessions, I was able to get a great job, move to an area and I haven’t been in a better place mentally, physically & emotionally in a very long time and I am resuming my sessions with her to see where I can get to from where I am now. After my first day at my new job, I emailed her letting her know how grateful I was for her help. I highly recommend Courtney.

My husband and I have been working with Courtney for a few years now. At the time, we were facing some challenges in our relationship. Courtney helped us gain a deeper understanding of each other and the different ways we communicate. She took the time to get to know us both as individuals and as a couple. Courtney is incredibly attentive and kind. She listens with genuine compassion and gives time and attention to both perspectives, creating a space where we both feel heard and supported.

Courtney has been an amazing light in my life- her help has truly given me peace and the ability to live the life I want to live! I was struggling with crippling anxiety when I first came to her, and through her kind help and guidance I have been able to experience relief. She is kind, consistent, wise, and she truly listens and cares. I have had a few therapists in the past, and I can honestly say she has been the most helpful I have ever had. If you’re struggling or needing help, please call Courtney.

My husband and I have been working with Courtney for over two years now. Courtney has been a huge help in allowing us to find healthy methods of communication, in honest soul searching to find the root of issues that we both face, and in facilitating workable solutions that we both feel comfortable with. Courtney is kind and thoughtful, and is great about helping us hold ourselves accountable without judgment or pressure. Courtney is an amazing listener and has a steel trap memory, often surprising us with her memory of details from prior sessions. We genuinely look forward to our sessions with Courtney, as we always leave feeling heard and with a renewed sense of direction in the steps we need to take to improve communication and honesty in our relationship. I would wholeheartedly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for couples or individual therapy!

I’ve been working with Courtney for over 3.5 years now, and I can honestly say she’s been one of the most consistent, grounding forces in my life. From day one, she created a space that felt completely safe and judgment-free–something I didn’t even realize how deeply I needed until I had it. What truly sets Courtney apart is her ability to really listen. She never misses a beat–big or small–and often remembers things I’ve said months (or even years) earlier. Her memory, empathy, and ability to read between the lines make it feel like she’s walking alongside me, not just observing from the outside. She understands me in a way that few people do, and her advice is always thoughtful, balanced, and deeply rooted in both her expertise and her knowledge of me as a person. She’s helped me connect patterns in my life, increase my self-awareness, and better understand how my experiences shape my behavior. I’ve also appreciated how intentional she is in learning about my background–culture, religion, and identity–in order to better tailor her support. That kind of care is rare. Whether you’re new to therapy, returning after a break, or looking for someone who truly gets it, I can’t recommend Courtney enough.

She has a remarkable ability to balance empathy with honest feedback, helping us to better understand each other and communicate more effectively. Her insights and practical tools have strengthened our connection and helped us navigate difficult conversations with greater patience and compassion. We’ve seen real, lasting improvements in our relationship, and much of that is thanks to Courtney’s thoughtful and consistent support. We highly recommend her to any couple looking to build a stronger, healthier relationship.

I have had the best experience with Courtney! I’ve been working with Courtney for a couple years, and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s compassionate, and truly listens without judgment. Courtney creates a warm, safe space where I feel comfortable opening up to her. She listens when you need her to but will also help find strategies based on your needs. She has been the most helpful with giving me techniques to not spiral when life is stressful.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Courtney over the past two years, and I can’t speak highly enough of the experience. She played a vital role in our couples therapy, offering insightful guidance, genuine empathy, and practical strategies that have significantly strengthened our relationship. Her welcoming and nonjudgmental approach made it easy for us to be open and honest, which helped us build deeper trust and understanding. We feel confident in our relationship and have the tools to navigate any challenges that arise.

Couple Client, 2025

I initially sought Courtney’s help to deal with the anxiety of a high-pressure job that had been affecting all aspects of my life, both professional and personal. Within our first few sessions, it was clear that Courtney was not only actively listening, but finding patterns in my actions that I had been unable to notice myself, even after significant retrospection. What’s more, it was clear that she spent additional time outside of our sessions developing plans to help me manage my anxiety. Her nuanced approach to setting realistic and actionable goals, providing practical insight, and guiding me through the development of applicable skills has been endlessly helpful. While I recognize that therapy is not one-size-fits-all nor a panacea to cure all problems, I can honestly say that my overall quality of life is better after having worked with Courtney.

Courtney has been a blessing to our marriage. Having been with her in premarital therapy allowed my husband and I to be mentally prepared and have the adequate tools to handle conflict that may arise. We find ourselves using the tools she provided in therapy more often than not. During our time with her, she made us feel safe and comfortable to be ourselves and not feel judged. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, especially if it’s your first time doing any type of therapy.

Couple Client, 2024

We are immensely grateful to have worked with Courtney as our marriage counselor. Her expertise has significantly expanded our personal skillsets, enabling us to communicate more effectively and recenter on our values. She provided us with effective concepts/tools that we have implemented into our daily lives. Thanks to her guidance, we now approach our relationship with renewed confidence and understanding. We highly recommend Courtney to any couple looking to strengthen their bond and prep for the road ahead.

Doesn’t matter where you are in life, starting therapy is always a nerve racking experience. However, after my 1st session with Courtney, I knew it would be OK. She is a very kind, warm and compassionate therapist and the space she provides truly is a safe space. From our sessions and the tools she provided, I developed better self awareness and emotional recognition skills. Highly recommend working with Courtney if you are looking into therapy.

Client, 2024

We worked with Courtney for about four months and got a lot of value from our sessions with her. She was able to help us navigate the different facets and challenges that marriage brings, and we came out of our sessions with a stronger relationship and better understanding of each other. Courtney provides a warm, welcoming, nonjudgmental space. She was good at balancing between talking through the material and just letting us talk to each other. She has a knack for recalling issues that had come up in previous sessions and relating it to what we were discussing at that moment, which shows she really puts energy and focus into her clients. Overall, we had an enjoyable experience and recommend working with Courtney.

Courtney is an incredibly patient and empathetic therapist. I felt connected to her very quickly and loved her warm and sweet personality. She understood me so quickly and was both comforting and a great listener. She was very understanding of the things I needed to talk about, helped me resolve several issues and also helped me become more aware of my feelings. I looked forward to our weekly conversations like I would look forward to visiting an old friend. I would definitely recommend Courtney!
