Courtney Groce, LPC

Courtney Groce is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship issues, anger, parenting concerns, and related life changes. She works with people facing trauma, grief, and challenges tied to identity and career shifts.

Her approach blends practical methods and open conversation. Sessions aim to build clearer communication, steadier coping skills, and healthier routines. She uses concrete tools rather than vague promises, and helps people notice which strategies fit their daily lives.

Courtney draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She also uses Client-Centered techniques to keep sessions rooted in the client's concerns and the Gottman Method when relationship communication is a focus. These methods guide the work rather than define it.

She pays attention to how past experiences affect current behavior, including family of origin issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care dynamics, and blended family concerns. She also works with people dealing with ADHD, bipolar disorder, substance use, and compassion fatigue, among other challenges.

Courtney frames therapy as a practical collaboration. She helps people develop skills for managing anger, reducing resentment, and communicating needs more effectively. If you want straightforward support for temper, stress, or relationship strain, she offers steady clinical experience and clear techniques.
