Hello and Welcome! Clients come to therapy often feeling lost, confused and stuck. Many people want to process work stress, worries, sleep issues, loneliness, health challenges, grief and loss, parent/child dynamics, relationships, guilt and shame, career and life transitions. My work emphasizes mind/body awareness to facilitate healing. I've worked with clients who are completely new to therapy and those who have tried working with different therapists. It's ok and good to get support.
I have a background in medical social work with a particular focus on women's health and infectious disease. I enjoy working with people with a multi-cultural background who have lived and worked overseas. My training is rooted in nervous system responses, mindfulness, thought-feeling-behavior cycles, and interpersonal connections/attachment.
I'm glad you've made it this far. I have a non-judgmental, down-to-earth, warm style. For most clients, therapy is not long-term. It is a safe space to learn new skills and move on. www.candicepeggs.com. Adult individual, couples, and family therapy. I also work with teens on a case-by-case basis.

Therapy will be collaborative, safe, supportive and at times challenging. There will be some structure and a plan with room for flexibility. I use evidence-based best practices.
