She also works with workplace stress and social anxiety so clients can function better at work and in relationships.

Her style is warm and down-to-earth. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with attention to what is most urgent for each person. Kandice emphasizes noticing patterns, trying small changes, and reflecting on what works.

Over a dozen years in practice has given her experience with many common life challenges. She meets people where they are and adapts support to individual needs. Many clients find this approach helpful when navigating transitions or repairing strained relationships with themselves and others.

Kandice practices in Michigan and conducts sessions in English. If you are supporting someone else or carrying caregiving responsibilities, she includes those pressures when planning practical steps forward.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions

Many therapists use evidence-based techniques to help people change unhelpful patterns and feel more capable. One common approach focuses on noticing and adjusting patterns in relationships and attachment. This helps when past ways of relating lead to anxiety or repeated conflict and supports building more predictable responses.

Another method emphasizes small behavioral changes that influence mood and daily functioning. It breaks big problems into manageable steps, such as scheduling brief self-care activities or practicing small exposure tasks for social anxiety. These steps can be tried between sessions and reviewed together.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kandice will collaborate with each person to identify which techniques fit best based on goals and life demands. She checks in regularly and adapts plans as needs change so therapy stays relevant and practical.

Please confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a day. Discuss format preferences when you schedule to match sessions to your needs and routine.
