Are you tired of your past traumas hindering your ability to experience true happiness? Do you often feel lonely, misunderstood, and disconnected in your relationships? Does it feel as if life is working against you rather than helping you create the life you deserve? I want you to know that you are not alone, and you absolutely deserve to have the life and relationships you desire. As a trauma specialist and a certified Imago Couples Therapist, I focus on restoration, self-improvement, reconnection in relationships, and achieving peace. These are the goals I strive for with my ideal clients.
Candice R. Dickens specializes in culturally sensitive techniques that are inclusive of various intersectionalities, such as gender, race, ethnicity, and religion. We offer EMDR, crisis management, trauma counseling, Imago Couples counseling, Brainspotting, trauma-informed yoga, cognitive behavioral therapy, breathwork, and relaxing meditation.
CRA Counseling & Consulting Agency is dedicated to providing a safe space for you to heal, grow, reconnect, and thrive. We offer both in-person office visits, phone and telehealth appointments during the day and evening. Our office is wheelchair accessible and conveniently located near a bus line. Additionally, we provide nidra and restorative yoga sessions.
