About Courtney

Courtney Chandler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, ADHD, and related concerns. She works with adolescents and adults and aims to make therapy a straightforward, practical process. Her style is warm and direct, and she focuses on real-life coping skills people can use between sessions.

Courtney draws from several therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-centered ideas, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She combines these approaches to match each person’s needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions typically include talking through patterns, trying new coping strategies, and practicing skills that fit everyday life.

Her background includes a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University and extended coursework in marriage and family systems, addictions, trauma, and play therapy. She holds the LPC credential in Georgia and brings about 10 years of clinical experience to her work.

Courtney often helps with concerns beyond mood and anxiety, such as relationship and intimacy issues, grief, parenting stresses, body image, chronic illness, and caregiving strain. She pays attention to how a person’s life situation connects with what they bring to therapy.

Outside of work she enjoys time outdoors with her husband and her dog, Jade, and she values music and concerts as ways to recharge.

Approaches that guide online care

Courtney uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their thoughts and choose values-driven actions. ACT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with difficult feelings.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how relationships shape patterns of responding and emotion. That approach can help people who struggle with closeness, trust, or repeated relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Courtney will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether ACT, attachment-focused work, CBT tools, or DBT skills are the best fit for the situation.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. The therapist will explain how she runs sessions and which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets someone practice new skills in the settings where challenges happen and then bring observations back to the next session.
