Kandi Crandell's clinical approach to therapy is creating space to envision a different future while consciously examining past traumas through the lens of understanding and compassion. She believes all clients have the strength within themselves to grow, change, and ultimately accomplish their goals to better enrich their lives. She believes therapy is a space where the client is the healer in the room, and she exists to help clients discover their own superpowers. Kandi creates a nonjudgemental space to allow the client to share their unique story while also focusing on daily habits that support change.

Anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, trauma—it's all hard, and each challenge is different, so an ideal client is someone who is ready to work on their goals. I enjoy helping clients work through whatever concern or crisis they have. Being able to watch as someone makes the connections or meets a goal is always rewarding and the best part of the job.

My ideal client is someone who may be at a crossroads in their life, recognizing that they are struggling with issues they cannot manage themselves and ready and willing to make a change. Their challenges might revolve around anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, or addiction, possibly stemming from difficult life experiences, strained relationships, or a lack of purpose and fulfillment. They may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or lost, but beneath that, there is a desire for something better—a healthier and more meaningful life. Their needs often include a safe, non-judgmental space to express their feelings freely.

The client that I find ideal is struggling with a difficult life transition, such as early adulthood or midlife transition; they are struggling with their identity and may have some anxiety or depression around where they currently feel they are in life. They must find who they are, their beliefs, and their purpose. Their goals are to learn skills to manage all the emotions that keep them stuck, know who they are, and how they want to move into their next life phase. They want to be able to feel less overwhelmed and able to successfully manage their symptoms.

My ideal clients are individuals who have experienced childhood sexual abuse and grapple with its complex emotional aftermath. Many individuals struggle with feelings of guilt—whether it is due to speaking out, remaining silent, or simply having needs and expressing them. The inner child, often frozen in time, may resurface when triggered, creating ripple effects in relationships and daily life. My work focuses on helping clients recognize and navigate these triggers, break free from repetitive patterns of emotional pain, and foster healing through self-compassion and empowerment.
