virtual services for adolescents (13+) and adults in Maryland
with courtney hart, lcsw-c, adhd-ccsp

Hi there! I’m Courtney Hart, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Board Approved Supervisor based in Maryland.

Many of my clients diagnosed or suspected to be ADHDers and/or Autistic, some with a PDA profile. They are often high-masking and “twice-exceptional,” leading to unrecognized support needs, invalidating experiences, and a need for an affirming space to process, plan, and prepare for navigating a world that was not designed for their mind.

A woman in a beige and multicolored sweater smiles while squatting next to a large brown dog, possibly a Newfoundland, with its tongue out, on a gravel path with trees in the background.

My clinical services are provided to Maryland-based clients ages 13 and older, virtually. I provide individual therapy and collaborative family therapy. Occasionally, I offer therapeutic or educational groups or series. I also provide consultation.

Interested in working together or have questions?

FAQs About Therapy
+ Telehealth

  • I provide therapy focused on helping people learn about their experiences, connect to their values, find ways to navigate uncertainty and other stressful aspects of life, and find ways to live a life that is accessible, supportive, and fulfilling to them.

    For those interested in the formal “names” for these types of therapy, I use a blend of therapeutic techniques informed by training in:

    • ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

    • DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy)

    • Person-Centered (Humanistic) Therapy

    • MBCT (Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy)

    • ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention)

    • ICBT (Inference Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)

  • For individual and family therapy, I work with clients who are thirteen and older, supporting adolescents and adults.

    For clients 10 to 13 , I may make an exception based on who referred you to work with me and appropriateness for virtual therapy; I do not typically work with clients younger than 10 at this time.

    Please reach out to me to discuss.

  • No, I do not take insurance directly. I am able to provide Superbills for those who have out-of-network benefits and are participating in therapy with me. To learn more about my current Rates and how to explore your out-of-network benefits with your insurance company, please visit my Rates page.

  • There is no way to predict exactly how long therapy will last as a variety of things can influence the length of treatment and attainment of therapy goals. My goal is for you to feel comfortable navigating the world without therapy in the time that is right for you.

  • Virtual therapy sessions allow clients to meet with their clinicians using audio and video over the internet. It’s a secure and convenient way to have therapy appointments without a need to worry about travel time, inclement weather, unexpected traffic or other hassles related to getting to an office. You can schedule and attend sessions directly from a laptop or mobile device.

  • Yes, virtual therapy has been proven to be as effective—if not more for some—than in-office therapy. It might seem awkward at first, but a few minutes into the session, you’ll likely find that same connected feeling. Most clients make progress that is similar to the progress they would find in an in-office session.

  • To participate in Telehealth, you will need a stable internet connection and either a computer with a web browser or a smartphone/tablet with the Google Meet app downloaded. You will need a working camera, microphone, and speakers or headphones. A private location is also important; please do not attend while driving or in public spaces that risk your confidentiality.

  • Parents must participate in the intake session and remain engaged in supporting their young person while they work with me. The level of engagement looks different for each family and is often influenced by the age and goals of the young person.

    Confidentiality is respected, regardless, which means although they can tell you anything that they want about their work with me, specific content discussed sessions will not be directly discussed with you without their consent barring safety issues.
