Courtney Burrus, LPC

Courtney Burrus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who uses practical, talk-based therapy to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She focuses on clear, achievable steps so clients can feel steadier in day-to-day life.

She combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, and other approaches to match each person's needs. Sessions look at thoughts and behaviors, and also at how past experiences influence current patterns. The goal is to build skills that make daily challenges more manageable.

Courtney helps people who are coping with trauma, grief, addiction, and changes like separation or job stress. She also addresses intimacy and attachment issues, body image, parenting challenges, and the strain of caregiving or compassion fatigue. Her work includes practical problem-solving and attention to emotional patterns.

Every plan is collaborative. She listens first, then suggests steps that feel realistic for the person in front of her. This includes short-term goals, homework between sessions, and ways to notice progress over time.

With 12 years of experience, Courtney brings steady support and straightforward tools. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental, aimed at helping people reconnect with values, improve communication, and make changes that stick.

How therapy approaches work online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts and behaviors interact. Online CBT sessions identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach practical strategies to change reactions and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and understood. Online meetings provide time to talk through feelings while a therapist reflects and helps people make choices that match their values.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice, and life direction. In virtual sessions this can help people facing major transitions or questions about purpose and identity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different needs. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation, phone sessions fit when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make scheduling easier and let people use therapy in ways that fit daily life.
