About Colby

Colby (CJ) Green is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 17 years of clinical experience across inpatient and outpatient settings. He brings a broad skill set working with adolescents and adults through challenges such as depression, anxiety, anger, relationship strain, addiction, ADHD, and stress.

Background and approach

His practice also addresses many related concerns including grief, parenting difficulties, intimacy matters, career stress, and complex presentations like bipolar symptoms or co-morbidity. Colby’s counseling approach is warm, adaptive, and nonjudgmental, emphasizing respect and compassion while remaining direct when needed.

He blends client-centered principles with evidence-based tools to tailor care to each person’s needs, serving as a guide, coach, and source of practical strategies. He aims to create clear communication and shared expectations so treatment can shift as clients’ goals evolve.

Clients seeking support can expect a collaborative process that combines therapeutic listening with skills and interventions drawn from several clinical traditions. Colby is prepared to help people navigate life changes, manage emotional regulation, and build problem-solving resources to face stressors and transitions more effectively.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work looks like

Colby draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to shape his online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and understood; it is useful for exploring values, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and attention-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. He works with each person to weigh goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, adjusting techniques over time so the treatment remains a good fit rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy schedules and varied communication styles. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care when life or location changes, and they allow clients to practice skills and check in between live conversations. Licensed professionals can tailor session structure and pacing within these formats to match individual needs and goals.
