About Courtney

Courtney Chandler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 10 years of experience. She works with adults and adolescents who are facing anxiety, anger, depression, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, trauma, addiction concerns, and relationship or family stress. Courtney also supports people dealing with grief, intimacy issues, sleep and eating problems, career strain, and compassion fatigue.

Courtney trained in clinical mental health counseling at Mercer University and continued study in marriage and family systems, addictions, trauma, and play therapy. In practice she uses a blend of approaches rather than one single method. Sessions tend to focus on what feels most useful for the person in front of her, not a fixed checklist.

Her way of working draws on client-centered listening alongside cognitive behavioral strategies and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Attachment-based ideas shape how she understands past family roles and patterns that keep showing up in adulthood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another tool she brings in to help people notice values and take small steps toward them.

Courtney has experience with developmental and neurodiversity concerns including autism and ADHD, and with issues related to adoption, abandonment, blended family dynamics, and caregiving stress. She has worked across ages but reports the strongest fit is with adolescents and adults.

Outside work she spends time outdoors with her husband and her dog, enjoys music and concerts, and cares for animals. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and schedule by following the site booking steps.

How her clinical approaches guide remote work

Courtney uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when feelings are uncomfortable. ACT is often useful for anxiety, low mood, and when old family expectations keep pulling someone off course.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early family roles and closeness patterns affect current relationships. This approach can clarify why certain reactions keep repeating and what a different response might look like in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Courtney treats the choice of methods as collaborative. She reviews goals and preferences with each person and adjusts strategies over time so sessions match what actually helps in daily life.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since explicit session formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, or allow check-ins during a work break. Ask about specific session options when you schedule so you understand how meetings will be arranged.
