About Cortney

Cortney Dollens is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Missouri, and holds a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Lindenwood University. Cortney has advanced training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), an evidenced-based therapeutic model offering a collaborative and structured way to build skills to effectively process traumatic experiences.

Cortney is Change, Inc.’s Assistant Director of Transition & Triage (ADTT), meaning it’s her job to provide support and direction for our incoming and outgoing referral processes. Also, Cortney is a Clinical Licensure Supervisor & Mentor, meaning she helps some of our clinicians grow and develop through clinical mentorship and direct supervision.

Cortney has spent time in a variety of mental health contexts and settings, including her work in agency-based, in-home, residential, and outpatient modalities, including her work with women struggling with substance abuse. She is passionate about building strong, trusting, and judgment-free relationships, and understands the delicate balance that must be struck with clients who need to be both supported and challenged at the same time. She has particular experience and interest in work with individual clients wrestling with depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, and identity (including LGBTQ+), as well as with couples on important issues affecting marriage or relationships.

From Cortney:

“In a world riddled with sadness and struggle, I strive to provide a safe haven for my clients to find support and hope, recognizing that all too often they just can’t be found anywhere else. My hope is to be source of grounding as you face your struggle, and ultimately, yourself. Counseling can be a transformative and life-changing experience if we are brave enough to engage it with earnestness and sincerity. I’ll be with you along the way.”

“

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
