Courtney Shelton

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am licensed in Colorado with 3 years of clinical work experience. Through a compassionate and empathetic approach, I create a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to explore your emotions and experiences, offering you tools to navigate challenging situations. With a trauma-informed lens, I work collaboratively with you to process your experiences and cultivate resilience.
As a clinician, I am mindful of the impact of compassion fatigue on individuals in helping professions. I understand the emotional toll it can take and offer support to professionals experiencing burnout or vicarious trauma. I provide a nurturing space for self-care, reflection, and developing strategies to enhance well-being and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
I believe in focusing on the individual as a whole, with their experiences, emotions, and values at the center and extending beyond therapy to encompass broader societal contexts. I am honored to walk alongside you on your journey of self-exploration, acceptance and personal growth.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A major advantage is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that fits their needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to integrate therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care. Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if a different fit is desired, clients can switch therapists at any time. For many people, remote sessions offer an accessible and practical way to pursue support and personal growth.
