About Courtney

Courtney Threats is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Rhode Island with 10 years of professional experience. She has worked with people facing stress and anxiety, supports those coping with addictions, and addresses relationship difficulties and family conflicts using a collaborative, strengths-based approach.

She approaches each person as the expert of their own story, helping them identify and apply their existing strengths to tackle challenges that feel overwhelming. Her style emphasizes listening, validation, and practical strategies that fit each person’s life and goals.

Across her work she aims to create a welcoming therapeutic relationship that helps clients build resilience, clarify values, and move toward meaningful change. Her practice focuses on meeting clients where they are and supporting steady progress over time.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck on them, then clarifies personal values and commits to actions that support a meaningful life. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and patterns that feel limiting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship where the client’s perspective guides the work; it emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and the client’s own expertise in finding solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, supporting change in areas such as anxiety, depression, and coping with addictive urges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Courtney Threats works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers accessible ways to connect with a licensed professional through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide scheduling flexibility, reduce travel time, and allow clients to participate from familiar environments while engaging in the same goal-focused work they would do in person.
