More about Candice

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPCC

Hi! My name is Candice and I am a licensed professional clinical counselor; holding my independent license in both Kentucky and Ohio. I have been working in the mental health field for over 7 years. I have served as both an individual and group counselor for people struggling with addictions, anxiety, depression, self esteem issues, communication troubles, family and/or relationship conflict, and much more. I have extensive knowledge in substance abuse issues, having worked with that population for nearly 5 years.

I obtained my bachelor's degree in anthropology and master's degree in clinical mental health counseling, both from Northern Kentucky University. I have always been interested in learning about people through their stories and decided to become a counselor in hopes of making a positive impact in people's lives.

I understand that seeking counseling can be a big (and sometimes scary) step, therefore I embrace my clients with kindness and without judgement. I enjoy assisting clients in identifying their own strength and using these to achieve the life they desire (and deserve). I do this by utilizing mostly CBT, ACT, and MBSR strategies, tailoring these to my client's needs.

I am grateful for the privilege to work along side of you as you take this step in your life!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She has always been supportive and let me tell her what i need to talk about. I feel like its generally a safe place to speak my mind about my anxieties and mental blocks. Most of the time if I'm doubting myself she's the big voice telling me that its ok to doubt yourself but my gut feeling should be my driving force.

Candice is incredible. She listens, she's personable. She knows what I mean when I describe how I'm feeling. She doesn't judge me for my mistakes. She holds me accountable in a way that resonates with me. Every when I come to her feeling lost, confused, and stuck, she helps build a game plan and makes me feel hopeful and reminds me that as long as I can put in the work, I can get through this

I have seen a difference even in just a few sessions. Thank you so much!
