Courtney Geter

LMFT-S, CST-S

Founder and Clinical Director

Courtney Geter, LMFT-S, CST-S is many things including a small business owner, psychotherapist, author, public speaker, mentor, and animal lover.

In 2019, Courtney founded Atlanta Therapeutic Collective with the mission to provide quality mental health services and sex therapy to the community while also providing emerging professionals a place to advance their skills. Prior, Courtney was a solopreneur in private practice.

 

 

As a therapist, Courtney mostly works with clients experiencing painful sex, erectile dysfunction, sexual trauma, high conflict and relationship distress, and partners considering divorce or separation. Courtney works with clients from Attachment Theory and Solution Focused models and she is also trained in EMDR for trauma work.

Courtney works with clients in all relationship structures including monogamy, kinky, and consensual non-monogamy.

During the COVID 19 pandemic, Courtney authored a book, The Introvert's Guide to Dating: How to Leverage Your Unique Strengths to Connect and Find Love which, at the time, was one of the only books providing tips to dating introverts. 

 

Courtney has also provided speaking engagements and workshops to many organizations including Mercer University, Agnes Scott University, Froli Con, Atlanta Poly, The Georgia Association of Marriage and Family Therapists, Sex ED Conference, and the Licensed Professional Counselor’s Associate of Georgia. Courtney has also taught at Adler University in the Department of Couple and Family Therapy and guest lectured with Widener University.

 In addition to seeing private clients, Courtney also provides onsite and offsite supervision and directs the work of the associates and interns.

​Courtney also founded and created (the now defunct) Papaya Parties, which was an adult sex ed workshops, and she is the creator and producer of the Let's Talk Sex podcast providing fun yet informative information on sexuality.

Courtney is also a rescue dog mom to Sponge and helps in animal rescue including fostering other dogs. Courtney enjoys cooking and baking, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.
