About Courtney

Courtney Burrus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, and parenting and family-related struggles. She also addresses issues like ADHD, grief, body image, and coping with life changes.

She uses practical, problem-focused methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions typically involve clear steps and short experiments clients can try between meetings. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and solution-focused ideas to keep work concrete and manageable.

Courtney pays attention to how past relationships shape present reactions and uses Internal Family Systems and existential questions when that helps clarify patterns. She helps people untangle attachment and abandonment issues and work on communication and commitment concerns. When addiction or eating issues are present, she addresses behaviors alongside the thoughts and situations that fuel them.

Her style favors structure and collaboration. She helps set specific goals, track small gains, and adjust plans when needed. Clients who want a practical approach to change will find a focus on skills, experiments, and clearer thinking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online sessions use CBT to set clear goals, assign short between-session experiments, and track progress in everyday life.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s perspective and ideas. Online meetings give space for clients to describe what’s most important and for the therapist to reflect and clarify next steps.

Existential Therapy raises practical questions about meaning, values, and choice. This can help when clients face life transitions, grief, or emptiness and want to clarify priorities and commitments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts the plan as progress and feedback indicate.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow for brief focused check-ins, and reduce travel time. Online work makes it straightforward to use homework, worksheets, and behavior tracking between meetings without promising a particular session type.
