Background and approach

Her style is warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental, inviting clients to take an active role in shaping goals and treatment plans. She draws from several modalities including cognitive behavioral techniques, trauma-focused strategies, and attachment-informed perspectives to address a broad range of concerns.

Areas of focus include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Additional special interests encompass adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, communication and family of origin matters, and substance-related concerns.

Licensed in Illinois as an LCPC (IL LCPC 180003699), she offers flexibility through multiple session formats and accepts international clients. Candice aims to support clients through difficult material without leaving them to manage it alone, helping them strengthen coping skills and work toward meaningful change while respecting each person’s pace and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it is often used for concerns such as anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding relational patterns and emotional bonds, helping clients explore how early and current relationships influence feelings and behavior and supporting work on attachment issues and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, symptoms, and preferences and will adjust strategies over time to reflect progress and changing needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care across locations. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured treatments, teach coping skills, and support clients through difficult material without requiring travel, which can make consistent progress more accessible for many people.
