About Candice

Candice Williams is a licensed professional counselor with 15 years of experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She works with clients who are coping with ADHD and supports caregivers facing added strain. Her approach treats each person as the expert in their own story and builds on existing strengths.

Candice keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens, helps sort priorities, and teaches tools clients can use between visits. That may include ways to handle strong emotions, break tasks into steps, or practice small changes that add up over time.

She draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and acceptance-based ideas. Sessions are collaborative: goals are set together and progress is reviewed in simple, concrete terms. The tone is respectful and goal-focused rather than judgmental.

Many people come for help with workplace stress, relationship communication, or the loneliness that can come with caregiving. Others bring struggle with guilt, shame, or impulse control and want clearer strategies for daily life. Candice aims to make skills feel doable, not overwhelming.

If you are ready to begin, the process starts with a short questionnaire and a scheduling step. That first move is often the hardest, and she acknowledges the courage it takes to reach out.

How these approaches shape online sessions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change thinking and behavior patterns that keep people stuck. It often involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small experiments to see what works. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, called ACT, helps people notice difficult feelings without getting led by them and commit to actions that match their values. That can reduce avoidance and make everyday choices feel more meaningful.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different methods. Together they decide which strategies to try first, and adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Online work can make it simpler to practice mindfulness exercises between meetings and to apply behavioral experiments in real life shortly after a session. Licensed professionals tailor the mix of CBT and ACT techniques to fit each client's schedule and goals.
