About Courtney
Courtney Burrus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on practical, person-centered therapy. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping clients make changes that matter in day-to-day life.
She uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. That can include client-centered work that prioritizes the person's goals, cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and internal systems work to understand parts of the self. These methods are used to address issues such as stress, grief, addiction, body image, and parenting strains.
Courtney spends sessions helping clients build clearer communication and stronger boundaries. She often focuses on healing from past hurt, reducing shame, and improving self-esteem. Practical skills and small experiments between sessions are a common part of her work.
With 12 years of experience, she brings steady clinical experience to complex problems like chronic pain, bipolar mood shifts, and commitment or control issues. She also supports people dealing with family of origin wounds, abandonment, and fatherhood-related concerns.
Sessions are offered in English and are arranged through the site's scheduling process. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire to begin, then schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How therapeutic approaches adapt to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a strong working relationship so the individual sets the pace and goals. This approach helps people who need acceptance, clearer self-understanding, and practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that affect money decisions or daily routines.
Internal Family Systems looks at different parts of a person and how they relate to one another. That can help when emotions feel conflicting, like wanting change but also fearing it, or when past wounds affect present choices.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals and preferences. That plan can shift as progress happens, with regular check-ins about what is or isn't helpful.
Confirm the available online session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue care through life changes while focusing on the same therapeutic tasks as in-person work.
