Miss Courtney Luster
Play Therapist
“Courtney L. Luster is a licensed professional counselor and certified play therapist who specializes in children and adolescents.”
About Me
Courtney L. Luster, a certified play therapist and licensed professional counsellor, understands how children and adolescents communicate. She helps young people navigate big feelings and challenges through creative play. This offers a safe space where they can express themselves without words. Her approach is ideal for children who find it difficult to articulate worries, allowing them to explore emotions and build resilience naturally.
Approach
With young clients and teens, sessions follow their lead while gently introducing playful activities and quiet structure to explore feelings. In my St. Louis office, English sessions blend hands-on materials, brief assessments when helpful, and parent collaboration between visits so insights carry into daily life. I pace work to match developmental needs, naming emotions, building safety, and practicing coping skills through play and small experiments. Families seeking a gentle, practical way to help a child process big feelings often find this approach a good fit.
