About Courtney
Courtney Lopez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on grief and loss, life adjustments, stress and anxiety, and parenting concerns. She also works with relationship struggles, self-esteem, addictions, career stress, and ADHD-related challenges.
Courtney uses a mix of practical methods to help people make changes they can live with. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and build concrete coping skills. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship wounds and communication problems.
Sessions often include straightforward goal-setting and skill practice. That can mean learning short grounding or mindfulness exercises, trying new ways to talk about needs, or testing small behavior changes between sessions. The focus is on what a person can try next week, not long theoretical plans.
She pays attention to how past losses and attachment experiences shape current choices. This can be useful for people dealing with complex grief, divorce, adoption-related concerns, or feelings of emptiness and abandonment. Communication problems, codependency, and caregiver stress are also common topics.
Courtney frames work as collaborative problem-solving. She listens for what matters most, suggests practical strategies, and helps people track whether changes are working. Sessions are oriented to daily life and to making steady, manageable shifts.
People looking for help with parenting strain, family-related stress, or relationship difficulties often start by clarifying immediate goals. From there, Courtney helps create step-by-step plans to reduce overwhelm and improve everyday interactions.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Courtney often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify their values and take small actions that matter to them. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to behaviors that align with what someone wants in life. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication. This approach helps identify repetitive interaction styles and try new ways of relating in everyday settings.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will help you decide which methods fit your goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can shift as work progresses, with regular check-ins about what feels helpful and what needs to change.
Specific session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit meetings into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Others prefer sessions that give time for practice of skills like grounding, behavioral experiments, or communication rehearsals between meetings. The emphasis is on making therapy practical and usable within daily life rather than on lengthy theory.
