Working with Courtney was an wonderful experience. She is incredibly profesional and caring, she was of great support to our family helping our son through the difficulties of being an introverted kid, in a new school environment, after an international move, on his Junior year. She showed him many tools and strategies to help him appreciate change, become more organized, communicate his concerns, and even though it is a slow process, I do believe that her support was invaluable at the time. As parents, we felt guided and supported as well. We will continue working with Courtney in the future if the need arises, because we feel that she is an extraordinary human being.

Our daughter benefited greatly from working with Courtney, who helped her get back on-track during a very difficult time. Courtney hit the right level of kindness and accountability, which was crucial. She also communicated with me and my husband, giving us parenting and communication tips, while also (importantly) respecting and maintaining my daughter’s confidentiality. I would definitely recommend Courtney to any teen/young adult who needs some non-parental direction and coaching.

Courtney came to our family at a perfect time. Our son had been seen many other professionals – therapists, speach therapists, counselors, psychiatrists, etc. He had made lots of progress, but I was really needing someone to help him from his own perspective vs what I thought he needed. I wanted a life coach; someone to help with day to day and week to week issues. Some social, some school related, some family related. Someone he could confide in and Courtney was definitely that person! I loved that she was available via text and would communicate in whatever way my son needed. They played games sometimes when he wasn’t open to talking and they created a relationship that I couldn’t create as a parent. As we all ebb and flow, we aren’t using Courtney’s services today but I certainly will use her again if we need a bit of help!

Discovering Courtney and participating in the discussions she leads has been a positive influence in my relationship with my 15 year old daughter. Since I committed to bi-monthly calls with Courtney, her passion for facilitating a better, day to day experience for my daughter and I is like having a personal, consciousness, Energizer bunny running in the background of my life. Working with Courtney reminds me to stay engaged in my efforts to grow as a parent and to be more aware of the issues impacting my teenager’s life – we often forget what that was like. The Sunday conversations have created opportunities to reframe my interactions with my daughter in more constructive ways and they give me a safe space to talk through my concerns or issues as a parent. Courtney is great about listening and then following up with useful tools that are personal to the challenges I am facing. Although there are always many factors involved in a relationship, I’ve noticed an easier experience with my teenager, even if its only because my daughter recognizes on a conscious or unconscious level that my continued efforts with Courtney indicate my commitment to being a good father to her.

I was looking for a life coach for my daughter before she left for college. Courtney Harris was recommended by my daughter’s therapist and I am so happy for the recommendation. She was empathetic and very knowledgeable. She offered my daughter advice, options and strategies she was able to use during the very stressful COVID times. If your are looking for a coach, I highly recommend Courtney. She makes great connections with young people and speaks their “language.”
