Holistic therapy for anxiety, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, and personal growth. Build resilience and create lasting, meaningful change. Courtney Osborne Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, #148572 Supervised by Lawrence Shweky, MA, LCSW Individual and Group Therapist Specializations Additional Certifications & Training View More Profiles CONTACT NOW FEES & INSURANCE Do you feel ready for growth, but unsure where to begin? Change can feel exciting and intimidating at the same time, especially when you know something needs to shift but aren’t sure what that looks like yet. In our work together, we focus on getting clear about what you’re experiencing and breaking it down into manageable steps. I help you notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck, talk through what’s actually hard right now, and build tools you can use outside of sessions. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting, my role is to help you make sense of where you are and support you as you move forward in a way that feels realistic and sustainable.

We all face challenges, but we also have an internal drive for healing. I am deeply committed to creating a safe, empathetic, and nurturing space where clients can connect with the part of themselves that seeks wholeness and happiness. Together, we will understand attachment patterns, explore interpersonal dynamics, build resilience, and develop self-esteem. Whether you're facing relationship challenges, anxiety, learning/processing differences, past trauma, or simply seeking personal growth, my unwavering goal is to empower you to access the tools and insights needed for lasting change. A commitment to learning and growth has shaped my professional journey. Before earning a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University, I worked as a special education teacher and tutor for neurodivergent children and adolescents. I then completed my practicum training at Stanford Sierra Youth and Families Services where I honed my skills in adolescent and family therapy, crisis intervention, and collaborative case management.

EMERGE offers Parent Groups and Coaching to support parents in navigating the challenges of raising children. Our services provide practical guidance, connection, and strategies for handling parenting issues, including screen addiction, perfectionism, and blending parenting styles.

Our parent groups are designed to offer support, practical guidance, and a sense of connection so you don’t have to navigate parenting alone. To help, we offer several services: Find support, build skills, and navigate parenting with confidence. Join Now Parent Coaching EMERGE offers coaching designed to empower parents by helping them identify their parenting goals, develop skills and effectively address challenging parenting issues. Different from therapy, coaching focuses on working only with parents and offering more direct feedback and problem-solving. It can range from a single session consult to an ongoing coaching relationship throughout the parenting years. For more information, contact us . The following trainings for parents were conducted for the DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program and can be accessed via the DJUSD website (link below). Parent Training SCREEN ADDICTIONS DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program December 2024 For many children and teens, screen use can mimic patterns of drug addiction and create difficulties associated with addictions, such as lying, stealing, pleading, threatening and erupting in anger. When parents attempt to limit screen use, they may face enormous challenges with no easy answers. This PEP Talk discussed the growing prevalence of screen addictions and strategies parents can use to address these issues and live more harmoniously. Watch PERFECTIONISM IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program October 2024 Perfectionism can be a force for success and achievement, but it can also lead to high stress levels, strained relationships and burnout. Characterized by unrealistic standards and harsh inner criticism, perfectionism contributes to many psychological conditions, including depression, anxiety, self-harm and eating disorders. Often starting in childhood, perfectionism appears to be on the rise in the United States. This workshop covered what perfectionism is, how it can sabatoge success and what parents can do to help their perfectionistic children. Watch BLENDING MODERN AND TRADITIONAL PARENTING DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program May 2024 Modern parenting is a relatively recent development that is marked by a child-centered, emotion-focused and process-oriented approach. Traditional parenting has a long legacy and is family-centered, behavior-focused and responsibility-oriented. This workshop explored the benefits and challenges of both approaches and discuss strategies for blending these two styles of parenting. Watch
