Courtney Chamerski, LCSW (she/her)

INDIVIDUAL, GROUP, AND FAMILY THERAPIST

Hello! I’m Courtney. Wonderful to meet you! Here is a little about me… I received my BA in Psychology and Master’s in Social Work (specializing in Integrated Evidence-based Behavioral Health Care and Adolescent Mental Health) from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Over the years, I’ve provided evidence-based, trauma-focused therapy with families at organizations such as Lurie Children’s Hospital Outpatient Center and Metropolitan Family Services. From young children to young adults, I find my professional joy in partnering with clients as they navigate the complexities of ADHD, anxiety, and mood dysregulation. I also focus on parent coaching for parents and caregivers of children with ADHD and/or anxiety.

My primary therapeutic approaches include:

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

• Parent Management Training (PMT)

• Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE)

• Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

Now, let’s get to the good stuff… I’m a world traveler and have been to 25+ countries. I love seeing the world through new eyes as well as getting outside my comfort zone. With all my travels, you could probably guess that I love food. Food helps us connect to our community and communities around the world.
