About Candice

Candice Schalit is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma, grief, and a range of other concerns. She draws on 13 years of clinical experience to create individualized plans that reflect each person's priorities and strengths.

Background and approach

Candice emphasizes a balance of empathy and thoughtful challenge to help clients move past patterns that limit their wellbeing. Her background growing up in the Bronx as the child of immigrant parents informs a perspective that values resilience and cultural nuance.

Candice works remotely from Georgia and offers services that address issues such as ADHD, depression, intimacy and sexual concerns, sleep difficulties, parenting and blended family dynamics, eating-related issues, and coping with life changes. She aims to help clients recognize possibilities for growth and to take practical steps toward more satisfying daily life.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Options

Many clients find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helpful for identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaborative goal-setting, giving clients space to explore feelings while the therapist supports self-directed growth. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for intense emotions and relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions often combine elements from different approaches so that treatment aligns with what the person hopes to achieve and how they prefer to work.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access support from different locations. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling, allow continuing care during life transitions, and let clients choose the mode of communication that feels most manageable as they work toward change with a licensed professional.
