How her approaches guide online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating issues.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person’s pace, reflecting concerns and helping them decide what matters most to work on. This approach fits situations that need support and clarity rather than strict instruction.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Candice works together with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She adjusts the mix of skills training, mindfulness, and reflective work as progress and needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in their regular routines and bring real-life situations into conversations without promising a particular session type.
