Courtney McCarney

Registered Social Worker

Courtney supports individuals navigating the impacts of trauma, stress, and life transitions with empathy, clarity, and strength. As both a clinician and a mom, she brings real-world understanding to her work, creating a compassionate environment where clients feel safe to explore their experiences without judgment. Courtney believes that change often begins with understanding the stories we tell ourselves and the patterns that keep us stuck, and she works collaboratively with clients to build clearer insight and stronger self-direction.

 

Approach & Areas of Focus

Courtney practices from a client-centred, trauma-informed perspective, tuning into each person’s history, strengths, and goals. She meets clients with curiosity, respect, and grounded support, helping them make sense of how past experiences may be influencing the present. Her approach combines exploration of emotions and behaviours with practical strategies for growth and healing.

Courtney commonly supports clients with:

  • Trauma and stress recovery

  • Emotional regulation and overwhelm

  • Life transitions and identity shifts

  • Understanding patterns in thoughts and behaviours

  • Building self-compassion and confidence
