Courtney JonesLCMHC

Courtney Jones is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Her approach emphasizes the person's own strengths and goals. She aims to make starting therapy feel possible and practical for people feeling overwhelmed.

Her work centers on creating a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what matters most to them. She uses straightforward techniques to build motivation, increase confidence, and reduce symptoms that get in the way of daily life. Sessions often include skills for coping, ways to shift unhelpful thinking, and steps to set achievable goals.

Courtney draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy strategies to spot patterns of thinking that fuel anxiety or depression. Motivational Interviewing and Client-Centered methods help people find their own reasons for change and feel heard during the process.

Her background across community and clinical settings informs a practical style. She helps people dealing with postpartum depression, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, addiction, grief, caregiver stress, and relationship or family-origin issues. She also supports people facing mood disorders, impulsivity, and difficulties with body image.

Courtney practices in North Carolina and holds the LCMHC credential, which stands for Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. Sessions are offered in English and she works with each person to set clear, manageable next steps.

Approaches that translate to online therapy

Courtney uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that fit long-term goals, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical experiments to change them. CBT offers concrete skills for mood disorders, stress, and coping with change. Client-Centered Therapy informs her way of listening - prioritizing the person’s perspective and building motivation from their own priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Courtney will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative decision happens early and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use different tools from home or work routines while practicing skills between meetings.
