About Courtney
Courtney Tibbetts is a Louisiana Psychologist (LA Psychologist 1463) with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Her practice notes social anxiety and phobia among the concerns she addresses.

Courtney trained in psychology from undergraduate through doctoral study, earning a Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology after completing a yearlong internship at a federal medical center. Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from East Carolina University and a Master of Science and Psy.D. from Marywood University.
In sessions she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address current problems and longer-standing patterns. She helps people talk through past experiences that keep causing distress and works on practical skills to manage symptoms day to day. That can include strategies for panic or for reducing avoidance when social situations feel overwhelming.
Courtney also helps people untangle relationship patterns that come from their family of origin or attachment history. She supports people dealing with divorce, communication problems, caregiver stress, or persistent feelings of guilt and shame. For those feeling isolated, she offers ways to rebuild social contact at a manageable pace.
Her practice combines formal assessment and therapy when needed. Sessions are aimed at clear goals, and she uses approaches shown to be effective for mood disorders, panic, trauma reactions, and social anxiety. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
Evidence-based approaches and how online sessions work
Many of Courtney's methods fall under evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Cognitive-style approaches help people identify patterns of thinking that increase anxiety and replace them with more realistic alternatives; these methods can reduce panic and social avoidance by practicing different responses. Trauma-focused work involves talking through distressing experiences in a structured way and building skills to manage the emotions those memories bring up; this can be helpful for post-traumatic stress and trauma-related symptoms.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Courtney will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress is reviewed. The collaboration helps match practical skills and therapeutic focus to what feels most useful.
The profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can also adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so people can practice skills between meetings.
