About Courtney

Courtney Chandler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, mood challenges, and a wide range of life disruptions.

Background and approach

With a decade of clinical experience, she blends practical strategies with empathic listening to help clients build coping skills and clearer perspectives. Her work addresses concerns such as depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, parenting struggles, body image and eating concerns, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue.

She uses an integrative, systemic outlook that draws on evidence-based frameworks including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). This allows her to tailor interventions to individual needs while keeping the client’s broader life context in view.

Courtney has experience across age groups and finds particularly strong connection with adolescents and adults. Outside of practice she enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and their dog, and she values music and live concerts as part of a balanced life.

Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy

Courteny offers several practical therapeutic methods that translate well to online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression; it uses structured exercises and skill practice that can be done between sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility through mindfulness and committed action, which can help with persistent worry, avoidance, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence present-day connection and trust, useful for intimacy-related issues and relational patterns.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your concerns, preferences, and goals and then suggest options or combine methods so the plan fits your needs. Clients are invited to give feedback and adjust the focus as therapy progresses to ensure the approach remains useful.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to access consistent support without commuting, allow for in-the-moment skill coaching, and accommodate people who prefer shorter or more frequent check-ins as part of their care.
