I’m Courtney
I’ve worked in the mental and behavioral field for over a decade. I hail from the Midwest but have called Utah and ‘The Intermountain West’ my home for many years.
I earned my B.S. in Human Biology from Indiana University and Masters in Social Work from the University of Utah. I hold my LCSW license in the state of Utah and am the Owner of High Desert Healing PLLC.
I’m proud to call myself a social worker, therapist, mental health advocate, business owner, and supervisor. I regularly find myself on the other side of the couch, as a client in therapy myself. I love my job. I love my dog, Java. I love my high desert community in Salt Lake City.
You are welcome here.
Regardless of your race, gender identity/expression, sexual orientation, relationship status, religious affiliation, etc.
You belong here. You are safe. You are loved just as you are.

“The moment we choose to love we begin to move against domination, against oppression. The moment we choose to love we begin to move towards freedom, to act in ways that liberate ourselves and others.”
