WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
- Destiny
"When I first started service with Candice it was the height of the pandemic. I was an overwhelmed Mom burying far to many of my own issues, trying to power through as a people pleaser, which I felt I had to be. I finally reached a breaking point in my childs pediatricians office, quite literally crying for help. The referral to Candice, genuinely and honestly, saved my life. She took the time to truly see me for who I was, as a person, something and someone I didn't think existed anymore, and sparked back a fire in me I thought long extinguished. From unpacking trauma to celebrating, an abundance of grieving, and a plethora of long term strategies and coping mechanisms, there has not been a day I haven't given thanks and credit to Candice for helping me reach a point and a life, I never could've imagined possible."

"I started off working with Candice for my daughter, but ended up having her as my therapist. She has helped me through so many challenges and I wish I could have stayed with her. She is someone that tells you straight how it is but she does it in a kind way! She stuck by me when I thought that I was worthless and has helped me to gain confidence in myself and to believe in myself most importantly. She is an amazing person!"

“Over just about 2 years spent with Candice, there were plenty of bumps in the road of my life both physically and mentally. Over the course of the last 2 years, she helped me work on a variety of feelings ranging from general anxiety and panic attacks to daily stressors, as well as a body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB). When I first started seeing Candice, I had a hard time being able to connect the dots when it came to my anxiety and BFRB. She helped me to identify common themes, triggers, and mindsets rooted in the experiences I had in the past. She truly listened to every detail of what I had to say, whether I was having a bad streak or a good streak. I constantly felt heard and safe in her presence (as well as her pups’ too!), knowing that she is truly passionate about her career in helping others. Now “graduated” from therapy, I know she will always be there for me if needed, but I generously credit my growth to the support from Candice!"
