About Kourteni

Kourteni Henderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana. She has five years of clinical experience helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, or depression. She aims to make the first step feel manageable and offers steady support through that process.

She builds sessions around openness and listening. Clients can expect a calm space to talk through thoughts and feelings without judgment. Henderson focuses on clear, practical work so people can notice small changes that add up over time.

Background and approach

Her work often addresses life transitions, grief, addiction concerns, and challenges related to identity and relationships. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and issues with motivation, impulsivity, or isolation. Her additional focus includes topics like blended family issues, commitment and communication problems, and body image.

Therapeutically she uses client-centered methods and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which help people reflect on patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions combine listening with straightforward tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Her practice supports those dealing with parenting pressures, career stress, and family-related strains.

Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online through several formats to fit different needs and schedules.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person first. The therapist follows the client’s lead, helps people feel heard, and supports them in finding their own solutions. This approach is useful for anyone who needs a respectful, nonjudgmental space to sort through feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple, practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, impulsivity, and patterns that keep problems going.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works together with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can change as people make progress or as their priorities shift.

Online therapy offers flexibility by letting people meet from home or while on the go. Options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, so people can pick what fits their schedule and comfort level. These formats make it easier to maintain regular sessions and to use therapy tools between meetings.

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.
