About Courtney

Courtney Chandler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with common concerns like anxiety, depression, anger, trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and stress. She also lists support for LGBT concerns, parenting and career questions.

Courtney uses an integrative approach that draws on client-centered ideas alongside cognitive behavioral tools and acceptance work. She also uses attachment-focused ideas and dialectical behavior strategies when helpful. Sessions tend to focus on practical skills, clearer thinking patterns, and improving how people relate to themselves and others.

She has a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University and additional coursework in marriage and family systems, addictions, trauma, and play therapy. Her background includes work across age groups, with particular experience helping adolescents and adults navigate difficult transitions and relationship strain.

Courtney aims to connect with clients in straightforward ways. She listens to current problems, tries out concrete coping strategies, and adjusts the plan as goals change. Expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and checking what is or isn’t working.

Outside of work she spends time outdoors with her husband and her dog Jade, and enjoys live music and nature. She offers services in English and does not accept international clients at this time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Courtney draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered methods. ACT focuses on identifying values and building small actions that match those values while teaching ways to reduce unhelpful struggles with thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and helps people notice how early connections shape current reactions and closeness with others. Client-Centered work prioritizes clear listening and helping clients lead the pace and focus of sessions.

Choosing the right approach is usually collaborative. She will talk with the client about goals, try a few methods, and adjust based on what feels useful. The therapist and client plan sessions together and check progress as they go.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm the specific online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, work shifts, or caregiving, and it can reduce travel time. Some people prefer shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, while others use longer sessions for deeper work. Ask about available formats when scheduling to pick the best fit.
