Do you feel stuck in the same painful patterns, even though you’ve tried so hard to change? You may sense that something deeper is holding you back—showing up as anxiety, unhealthy coping, or difficult relationships that leave you feeling alone or disconnected. Sometimes it can feel like being an adult on the outside, but still carrying old wounds inside. I understand this pain personally. I am a Spirit-filled Christian, and I welcome integrating faith, prayer, and Christian beliefs—when desired—alongside emotional healing and practical coping skills. My goal is to help you find freedom, purpose, and a deeper sense of wholeness.
I specialize in addictions, but more so helping people heal patterns that began in childhood, when our beliefs about ourselves and the world were formed. Together, we’ll gently explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and create new, healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating.
My role is to help you reconnect with the wholeness, wisdom, and strength already within you—beneath the pain—so you can feel safer in your body, more connected to others, and more confident moving toward the life you want.

Candace is wise, warm & attuned to clients needs, spoken or unspoken. She accompanies clients so tenderly they soon know they are not alone. She also gives direct feedback when welcomed & needed. Any client would be lucky to have Candace as a therapist.

Candace has such a warm, open presence! As colleagues who have shared trainings together, I have seen how much care Candace puts into her work. She seems to bring her full, real self to everything she does - what a gift this must be for her clients!

Traumatic experiences can freeze us, lead to depression, anxiety, low self-worth, and a loss of connection with our authentic being. Using evidence-based knowledge, I bring my own authentic self to work with you. By embracing our shared humanness, I guide healing by creating a safe container to liberate pain and dysfunctional tendencies, to increase mental wellness in the here and now.
