Dr. Courtney Barber, PsyD, LMFT, AAMFT-S
Psychologist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, AAMFT Approved Supervisor, Clinical Director & Founder
While our experiences shape us, they do not have to define us. I believe every person has the capacity for growth, healing, and meaningful change when given the right support, tools, and opportunities. My work is rooted in the belief that mental health is an essential part of overall well being and that caring for ourselves emotionally, relationally, and psychologically creates the foundation for healthier individuals, stronger relationships, and thriving communities. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, families, adolescents, and military communities navigating life's challenges and transitions. My approach is collaborative, direct, and grounded in genuine connection. I believe therapy should be both supportive and purposeful, helping people gain insight, strengthen relationships, build confidence, and create meaningful movement toward the life they want to live.
As an active duty military spouse, I understand firsthand the unique demands military life can place on individuals and families. This experience has fueled my passion for improving access to quality mental health care and advocating for those who often face barriers to receiving support. Beyond the therapy room, I regularly engage in community advocacy, professional mentorship, public speaking, and collaborative efforts aimed at strengthening mental health awareness, expanding access to care, and supporting military connected families and communities. I am a firm believer in the power of community. These experiences continue to shape my perspective and reinforce the importance of connection, service, and showing up for others.
I am also the founder and owner of Barber Family Counseling & Wellness, where I oversee clinical services, support the development of clinicians, and work to cultivate a practice culture centered on excellence, integrity, and compassionate care. Whether I am providing therapy, mentoring clinicians, speaking to organizations, or partnering with community leaders, my goal remains the same: helping people and systems grow stronger, healthier, and more connected.
Outside of my professional roles, I am a military spouse, and the mother of three daughters, two dogs and a beardie. We have been in Coloado for 10 years and I still never tire of the view.
Whether you are seeking therapy, looking for a speaker, exploring collaboration opportunities, or working to strengthen mental health within your organization or community, I am passionate about helping people create meaningful and lasting change.

What Clients are saying about Courtney....
"If you are in need of a counselor with excellent communication skills, empathy, problem solving, acceptance and diversity, multicultural competency, and flexibility, you are in great hands with Barber Family Counseling." -Anonymous Client
"This lady (Courtney) has counseled me off so many ledges I’ve lost count! She’s not only kind and empathetic, but able to really give practical tools and steps towards healing. It doesn’t feel like you’re talking to a doctor, but a friend.. and the office at Barber Family Counseling is simply beautiful."
-Anonymous Client
"Courtney is a wonderful coworker and cofacilitator. She is a very direct communicator, so I and clients never have to wonder what she is thinking. She is very helpful for clients who need structure, as she is comfortable being solution-focused and goal-oriented. Her clients individually and in groups see results! Especially with teens, she is wonderful with "resistant" clients because she is able to see through the facade, speak to the person's reality and draw out their own internal motivation to grow."
-Anonymous
I prayed for a miracle and I believe that God sent us Courtney. She has a special gift that allows her to reach teens in a way that transforms their lives. I was completely at the end of my rope with my teen. My sweet, kind adorable baby had entered the dark realm of "teenhood", and I did not know how to handle it. Courtney was able to uncover the root of her anger and open the doors of communication for both of us. Courtney gave me hope, peace and my sweet baby girl back! She was the answer to my prayers. I will never be able to thank her enough.
-Anonymous Client
"Courtney has been my compass as I navigate through life. She is compassionate, professional, and truly cares about each of her clients. She tailors her approach to each client so you never feel like a case study, or that you are getting a “cookie cutter’’ treatment. Courtney is the first counselor that actually listened to me and addressed my concerns. I always feel better after I meet with her. She has truly been my life line, and I cannot recommend her enough!"
