Hi, I’m Courtney williams
Welcome to Magnolia Therapy Center — I'm So Glad You're Here!
If you're here, there's a good chance you're looking for something to change. Maybe you're struggling with past trauma, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a tough season, or just sensing that something needs to shift. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: you're in the right place, and you don't have to figure it all out alone.
What Makes My Approach Different
My specialty is trauma-informed care, which means we'll work together to understand how your past experiences have shaped you—without letting them define you. We'll explore what's happened in your life, understand how it's affecting you now, and build practical skills to help you heal and grow. My approach blends Attachment Theory with cognitive behavioral techniques, but here's what that actually means for you: practical tools, real strategies, and genuine progress.
What to Expect
My approach is structured, direct, and solution-focused—I'm not here to just talk in circles. We'll set real goals and work toward genuine progress using techniques rooted in Attachment Theory and cognitive behavioral therapy. But don't worry, therapy with me isn't all serious business. I believe in empathy, humor (sarcasm is my love language), and creating a space where you actually feel comfortable opening up. Healing doesn't have to be scary or stuffy. It can be empowering, even uplifting.
Beyond the Office
When I'm not in the therapy room, you'll find me cheering way too loudly for the Atlanta Braves, trying new restaurants, traveling anywhere I can, and soaking up time with the people I love.
Let's Connect
If you're ready to take the next step, I'm ready to walk alongside you. Together, we'll work toward healing, growth, and a life that feels more like yours again. I look forward to working with you!
MY STORY:
WHY I DO THIS WORK
-
I decided I wanted to be a therapist in 10th grade—and I've never looked back.
While other classes felt like background noise, psychology and human behavior captivated me completely. I was fascinated by the complexity of how we think, feel, and respond to life. But more than that, I knew I wanted to spend my life helping people navigate their hardest moments.
This calling became even clearer through my own experience with anxiety. From high school sports through college, I wrestled with the pressure to perform, the weight of expectations, and the mental toll it all took. I know what it's like to feel stuck in your head—replaying moments, worrying endlessly, doubting yourself even when you're giving it everything you have.
Living through that taught me something crucial: we all need support. We all deserve someone in our corner who understands what we're going through—not just clinically, but personally.
That's why I do this. I became a therapist to help people break free from anxiety, stress, and trauma. To offer the kind of compassionate, practical support that I once needed myself.
If you're facing life's toughest challenges or simply need someone who gets it, I'm here.
