Danner Family Counseling
MY SERVICES
Individual
Individual therapy is where a person works one-on-one with Courtney and focuses on addressing personal concerns, emotional difficulties, and mental health issues. Courtney believes in person centered therapy which values the client as the expert in their own experience and healing. Courtney's goal is to develop a warm, friendly relationship with my clients and accept them unconditionally. In individual therapy, she will provide a supportive and confidential space for the individual to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Family
Family therapy can help your family by providing a safe and supportive environment to address and work through various challenges. It can improve communication, enhance understanding of each other, and strengthen relationships. Family therapy can also help identify and address underlying issues within the family, promote healthy coping mechanisms, and provide strategies to navigate difficult situations. Ultimately, family therapy can promote overall well-being and harmony within your family.
Parenting
Courtney is a Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) therapist. Her training in TBRI guides her to create a safe and caring relationship with children and families. TBRI is rooted in attachment theory and focuses on the caregiver-child relationship to enhance and improve connection and felt safety within the relationship.
​
Courtney’s goal of parenting support is to guide and empower parents in their role as caregivers. She aims to enhance parenting skills, improve parent-child relationships, and promote positive child development. Courtney provides guidance, education, and practical strategies tailored to the specific needs and challenges of the caregiver and their child. She will walk alongside the caregiver to help them develop effective communication, discipline techniques, problem-solving skills, and self-care practices so they can create a nurturing and supportive environment for their child to thrive.
Therapeutic Approaches
-
Attachment BasedAttachment-based therapy is form of therapy that applies to interventions or approaches based on attachment theory. This theory focuses on relationships and bonds (particularly long-term) between people, including those between a parent and child. It is a psychological explanation for the emotional bonds and relationships between people. This theory suggests that people are born with a need to forge bonds with caregivers as children. These early bonds may continue to have an influence on attachments throughout life.
-
Play TherapyGenerally for children ages 3 to 11, play therapy is a form of counseling that relies on play to help therapists communicate with children and understand their mental health. Because children develop cognitive skills before language skills, play is an effective way to understand a child. The therapist may observe a child playing with toys--such as playhouses and dolls--to understand the child's behavior and identify issues.
-
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)Cognitive-behavioral therapy stresses the role of thinking in how we feel and what we do. It is based on the belief that thoughts, rather than people or events, cause our negative feelings.
-
Strength-BasedStrength-based therapy is a type of positive psychotherapy and counseling that focuses more on your internal strengths and resourcefulness, and less on weaknesses, failures, and shortcomings.
-
Family SystemsFamily Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns.
-
MulticulturalMulticultural awareness is an understanding and sensitivity of the values, experiences, and lifestyles of minority groups. Differences in race, culture, religion, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, are all tackled by Multicultural counseling. In the counseling setting, the counselor recognizes that the client is different from the counselor and treats the client without forcing the client to be like him or her.
