Finding the right therapist matters, and I understand that reaching out is often the hardest step. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for more than 20 years, working with adolescents, adults, and seniors across a wide range of life challenges. I am EMDR-certified and trained in a broad range of approaches because no two people are the same, and neither are their needs. I stay committed to ongoing training because therapy and people both continue to evolve. Past clients have appreciated my flexible, engaging, and non-judgmental style. My goal is to get to know you and work with you exactly where you are.

🌄 A Tale of Two States: From Colorado to Texas

I'm a proud product of two distinct states: I spent my formative years growing up in Colorado before a major shift landed me in Pflugerville, Texas, as a high school junior.

That move—especially navigating a new culture and community during those challenging teenage years—was a profound adjustment period. It was this early, personal experience with transition and change that fundamentally shaped my path and inspired me to choose counseling as my career. Now, I carry the influence of both states with me.

Psychiatrist

Virtual • Denver, CO


I'm a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in child, adolescent, and adult mental health, and I'm passionate about helping people in the most effective, personalized way I can.

I believe good care starts with connection. While strong credentials matter, what matters most to me is truly listening and understanding what you're going through — then building a plan that fits your values and your goals. Care with me might involve prescribing, deprescribing, interventional treatment, therapy, or a thoughtful combination, always tailored to what will help you most.

Courtney Dunn

Courtney Dunn

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Glenwood Springs, CO


When people begin therapy, they're often carrying more than anxiety, trauma, or relationship struggles, they're carrying years of trying to make sense of experiences that have shaped how they see themselves and the world. My goal isn't simply to help you feel better; it's to help you understand yourself differently. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of the healing process. While I draw from several evidence-based approaches, I prioritize connection over modality. Research consistently shows that the relationship between therapist and client is one of the strongest predictors of successful outcomes.

I strive to create a space where you feel genuinely known, challenged, and supported. Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, substance use, grief, relationship difficulties, perfectionism, or a major life transition, we'll work together to understand not only what is happening, but why.

My hope is that therapy helps you move away from shame and self-criticism and toward greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and a life that feels aligned with your values.
