About Candice

Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and codependency concerns. She works with adults and has over 13 years of clinical experience. She practices from Georgia and offers therapy in English, including to international clients. Candice uses a warm, direct style that balances listening with gentle challenge to help clients move forward.

Candice draws on life experience and clinical work to shape each plan. She focuses on practical steps you can take between sessions, such as behavior changes, communication skills, and routines to improve sleep and mood. Sessions aim to be collaborative - she helps identify goals and break them into manageable tasks.

Her background includes work with people managing trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. She also supports those dealing with intimacy issues, body image, eating-related concerns, and caregiver stress. Candice pays attention to how attachment and abandonment histories show up in current relationships, and she addresses blended family and fertility stresses when relevant.

Candice combines client-centered listening with strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She also integrates mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to help reduce symptoms and build coping skills. Her approach is practical, paced to each person, and aimed at steady progress.

To begin, prospective clients complete an online matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing thoughts and changing patterns that lead to unhelpful feelings or behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday habits. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotion, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships, which can help with anger, mood swings, and self-regulation. Client-centered therapy centers on the person's perspective, offering nonjudgmental listening and support so people feel heard while they decide what changes to try.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with clients to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan as needed. That means techniques may shift over time based on what helps most for each person's concerns and preferences.

The profile indicates Candice provides remote sessions. Please confirm the exact session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work on skills and practice new behaviors between sessions, which supports steady progress toward goals.
