About Courtney
Courtney Jones is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with addictions, ADHD, parenting strain, and family of origin issues.
She approaches work from the view that people know their own stories best. Sessions focus on practical steps and skills clients can use between meetings. Conversations are aimed at clarifying values, reducing unhelpful thoughts, and building consistent habits that fit daily life.
Courtney draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thinking patterns that keep people stuck. She adds Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) strategies to help people clarify what matters and take value-based action. Mindfulness practices are used to steady attention and manage anxious or ruminating thoughts.
Motivational Interviewing features when people want help finding or renewing motivation for change. Client-centered therapy principles guide how she listens and responds, keeping the client's perspective central to planning next steps.
People who come for help with family of origin issues or communication problems can expect concrete skills work, role practice, and homework options to test new ways of interacting. Sessions often include problem-solving for day-to-day challenges, like managing caregiving stress or navigating relationship boundaries.
Her style is straightforward and goal-focused, with an emphasis on what the person can try between sessions. Courtney practices in North Carolina and works in English.
How ACT, CBT and client-centered work translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions toward them. Online ACT sessions often include exercises to notice what matters and practical steps to try between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thinking that keep problems going and teaches specific techniques to change those patterns, which can be guided through discussion and worksheets in virtual sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, reflection, and following the client's lead so goals and pacing come from the person rather than the therapist.Finding the right fit is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose which approaches to emphasize based on current concerns, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can be adjusted as progress is made or priorities change.
Confirm the therapist's available session formats before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, video conversations when eye contact helps, or phone conversations that use less bandwidth. These practical options can make starting and continuing therapy more manageable while focusing on skills practice and real-life application.
