Courtney Dunson helps people who feel weighed down by past pain and worry about the future.

01About Courtney

Courtney Dunson helps people who feel weighed down by past pain and worry about the future. She is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Colorado with seven years of experience. Her approach is steady and practical, aimed at helping clients feel more like themselves again.

Courtney focuses on anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts and behaviors, eating concerns, and attachment wounds. She also addresses stress, grief, addictions, intimacy issues, sleep and parenting struggles, and attention-related concerns.

Background and approach

She pays attention to related problems such as shame, codependency, body image, and isolation. Her style is trauma informed and cautious. She prioritizes building emotional stability before working through difficult memories.

That usually means teaching coping skills, grounding techniques, and ways to manage strong emotions first. Courtney blends several approaches to fit each person. She uses attachment-based work to understand relationship patterns, client-centered methods to follow the client’s pace, and cognitive behavioral ideas to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

She also draws from dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when needed. Sessions are offered on video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People who choose online sessions can expect regular check-ins, practical tools to use between meetings, and a focus on small measurable steps toward change.

If someone wants help figuring out what to try first, Courtney works together with them to plan the next steps.

04Online support

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change repeated dynamics. It can be useful for concerns like attachment wounds, trust issues, and intimacy problems. Client-centered therapy focuses on following the client's pace and priorities, offering a listening stance that helps people feel heard and understood before making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete strategies for anxiety, depression, and obsessive thinking.

Courtney treats choosing the right approach as a shared task. She will talk with the client about goals, daily challenges, and what methods feel most useful. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most in real life.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to add flexibility. Video calls allow for a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a break at work or be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can be used for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into busy schedules.
