More About Courtney Huddleston

Clinical Interests:

My passion is working with individuals that have survived stressful or traumatic experiences in childhood, adulthood or both, collaboratively helping them recover and thrive to live their best life. I also am driven to working with people with ADHD and anxiety. My husband and I are a dual-military couple for more than 13 years, and I am thoroughly enjoy working with active service members and Veterans on their journey to recovery. I have experience providing psychotherapy with adults, service members, Veterans, and youth with a wide range of concerns including ADHD, Anxiety, traumatic or stressful experiences, Depression, PTSD, helping the individual manage relationship issues, Substance Use Disorders, and any of these conditions comorbid with a mild Traumatic Brain Injury. Additionally, I have significant experience working with people who have experienced suicidal thinking. I am open to faith-based clients and concerns and incorporating your spiritual or religious beliefs into session.

Clinical Approach:

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in both Oklahoma and Texas, 7 years of post-graduate experience working as a counselor and case manager, in various agency settings-emergency room, social service agencies, VA hospital, military, and a state psychiatric facility.

My counseling style is conversational, warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach is integrative, based on the needs of each individual, combining techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and any individual spiritual or religious beliefs. I believe psycho-education about your concerns or diagnoses is a significant part of the recovery journey, so I incorporate this into sessions, so you can find out how you are “wired.” I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek help and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you on your journey to the best version of yourself!

Hobbies:

I enjoy quality time with my two young and spunky children and my husband. We have many types of animals. I enjoy being active outdoors (i.e. basketball, kayaking, snowboarding) and incorporating fitness into my family’s lifestyle.
