Courtney Jones, LCMHC

Courtney Jones is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. She focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Her approach centers on each person’s strengths and goals. She encourages small steps that lead to real change.

She uses evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to guide conversations. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on identifying what matters most to the client and building skills to manage difficult feelings. Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing are also part of her work when they fit a person’s needs.

Courtney often helps people with challenges related to ADHD, addictions, grief, parenting stress, body image, and mood concerns including bipolar disorder and postpartum depression. She also addresses communication problems, family of origin issues, and compassion fatigue. Her style is supportive and empowering, aimed at helping people regain confidence and clarity.

She believes clients are the experts in their own stories and works collaboratively to set achievable goals. Therapy sessions focus on practical strategies and honest conversation. The aim is steady, sustainable progress rather than quick fixes.

Courtney conducts her practice in English and is licensed in North Carolina. Prospective clients are encouraged to confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful steps rather than only changing thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches skills to shift them. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and building day-to-day coping tools. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s own perspective and strengths, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk through challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Courtney collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean combining elements from ACT, CBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to build a tailored plan together.

Confirm session formats and scheduling options before booking since format details are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reducing travel and allowing appointments during lunch breaks or between responsibilities. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed and supports consistent contact to practice new skills between meetings.
