Meet Courtney
Hi, I’m Courtney Schultheis - founder of Wake-Up Wellness. I’m a credentialed and certified Wellness Practitioner through the National Wellness Institute and the Council on Wellness Certification Excellence. I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in human services counseling with a focus in health and wellness.
Since 2013, I’ve worked closely with adolescents and young adults, helping them build emotional resilience, strengthen their mental health, and develop sustainable coping strategies. My approach is strengths-based, grounded in Positive Psychology, and guided by the belief that genuine change begins with self-awareness and compassion.
Over the years, I've served in a variety of clinical and educational settings - including school-based programs, community mental health, and substance abuse treatment. I've worked as a senior counselor in emotional and behavioral programs for children and adolescents, and as both a program coordinator and program supervisor in organizational settings. I've also created and implemented school prevention initiatives and highly effective Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) programs, helping schools and leadership teams cultivate emotionally healthy, supportive environments.
Whether you’re a parent seeking support for your teen, a young person navigating life's challenges, or an organization looking to strengthen your culture and wellness practices, I'm here to help foster growth, connection, and well-being - one step at a time.
"Counseling is the bridge that connects where you are to where you hope to be - a path toward balance, fulfillment, and lasting happiness."
