About Courtney
Courtney Jones is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges to self-esteem. Her approach is collaborative and strengths-based, aiming to help clients take small, manageable steps toward change.
She uses a mix of methods that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered talk therapy.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on clear goals like improving mood, boosting motivation, or handling life transitions. Conversations are direct and concrete, with tools and exercises to use between sessions. Courtney has worked with people facing addiction, grief, parenting stresses, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder and postpartum depression.
She also addresses issues like body image, caregiver strain, and communication problems. Her experience includes supporting those coping with guilt, shame, impulsivity, and compassion fatigue. Therapeutic work may include mindfulness practices, values clarification, and behavioral strategies to change unhelpful patterns.
Motivational interviewing is used when people need help clarifying their reasons to change and building commitment. The pace and methods are matched to each person's goals and everyday life. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them. It helps when worry or negative thoughts keep someone from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and respected while building trust and self-awareness through open conversation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Courtney will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and daily routines. That joint process lets the therapist adapt tools and pacing so therapy feels relevant and manageable.
Online sessions come in several formats: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and have deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins, scheduling, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options offer flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving demands, or people who live far from in-person services.
