About Candice

Candice Mitchell is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who focuses on helping adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or past trauma. She brings seven years of clinical experience and a calm, steady presence to sessions. Her style emphasizes pacing care so people can feel heard without pressure.

She often begins by learning how stress shows up in the body and day-to-day life. Intake conversations move slowly and respectfully to build trust and safety before deeper work begins. This lets clients notice small changes, like sleeping better or reacting less intensely to triggers.

Candice uses client-centered methods alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices. She also draws from somatic and motivational approaches to support nervous system regulation and practical coping skills. These methods are used together to match what each person needs in the moment.

Her clients include adults managing grief, relationship strain, addiction concerns, bipolar mood patterns, ADHD, and issues around gender and sexual identity. She also addresses family of origin stress, blended family challenges, chronic illness and pain, and feelings of emptiness or abandonment.

Candice values continued learning and keeps up with trauma-informed and body-focused approaches such as Polyvagal Theory and Internal Family Systems as part of her ongoing education. She aims to help people feel steadier, more grounded, and better able to move forward in daily life.

Step 3

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and then testing small changes. It helps with anxiety, depression, and problems that keep repeating in daily life.

Client-Centered Therapy is built around listening and following the person's lead. The therapist creates a respectful space where clients set goals and decide the pace of deeper work.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills that reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood through simple practices. These tools are often paired with other approaches to build steady habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and letting people join from their usual routines. Because session formats are not fully specified here, confirm the current options before booking. The therapist explains how recommended techniques translate into remote work and helps shape sessions so they match day-to-day schedules and practical limits.
