About Courtney

Courtney Burrus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 12 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns, and works with people facing early-adulthood pressures such as leaving home, career starts, and relationship changes.

Courtney uses several practical approaches to help people sort out what matters to them now. She helps clients notice patterns that cause pain and then practices new ways of responding. Sessions often include talking through relationship problems, mood struggles, and the effects of past hurt on present decisions.

She pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues, body image and eating concerns, and substance use problems. Courtney also supports people dealing with chronic illness or pain, grief, parenting stress, and the particular pressures of young adulthood like comparing themselves to peers or feeling stalled after school.

Courtney draws on client-centered work to build clear goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Internal Family Systems ideas may be introduced to map inner parts and reduce self-criticism.

Her work tends to be direct and goal-focused while remaining responsive to each person's needs. People can expect practical strategies to try between sessions and steady attention to real-life barriers, such as work schedules or financial stress. Getting started begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on open listening and helping people clarify their own goals. Online sessions using this approach look like steady, reflective conversations that let clients name priorities and choose the pace of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers clear tools to change thoughts and behaviors. In online CBT sessions clients can learn techniques, complete short exercises between meetings, and track progress week to week.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each client about their needs, goals, and daily life, and suggest which approaches to try. Decisions about technique are made together and can change as work progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills where they live and bring real-life examples into sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt the pace and tools to fit someone juggling work, study, or caregiving responsibilities.
