Courtney Mayfield, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Courtney

Courtney Mayfield is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and family challenges. She draws on 15 years of experience to guide clients through parenting struggles, relationship strain, trauma, and major life changes. Her work also covers grief, anger, self-esteem, mood concerns, ADHD, and other everyday pressures that affect family life.

Courtney aims for straightforward, practical sessions. She listens first, then helps set small, doable goals.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on communication skills, coping strategies, and rebuilding confidence. She uses techniques that teach skills people can apply between meetings. Her approach blends client-centered care with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness.

That means she centers the person in the room while also helping them notice thoughts, test assumptions, and practice calming skills. Solution-focused work helps keep sessions goal-oriented and useful for families juggling many demands. Courtney also uses motivational interviewing when clients want to make a change but feel stuck.

This method helps people find internal reasons to move forward at their own pace. She draws on trauma-informed ideas when past hurts affect current family patterns. Clients can expect a respectful, steady presence and practical suggestions.

The focus is on skills that fit daily life so progress can happen outside of sessions. Courtney holds Texas LPC 64439 and conducts work in English from her Texas practice.

How specific approaches translate to online family and parenting work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful and accepting space. The therapist listens carefully and follows the client’s lead, which helps when families need time to sort out priorities. This approach supports building trust and clarifying what matters most in parenting or family concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them against real life. It teaches concrete skills like breaking problems into smaller steps and trying new reactions. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and everyday parenting stress because it emphasizes practical changes that can be practiced between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment and simple breathing or awareness exercises. These skills can reduce reactivity and improve focus during tense family interactions. They work well alongside the other methods to help people stay calmer during conflict.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Courtney will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they adjust the approach so sessions feel relevant and doable for busy family lives.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, and caregiving duties. They also let people use tools learned in therapy where they live, which can help make progress more practical and immediate.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
