"Welcome! In your search to find a counselor, you have taken the first step to healing and finding balance in your or your loved one's life. I specialize in working with women and children/adolescents who have experienced trauma, feelings of anxiety/depression, self-harm/suicidal thoughts and/or transitional issues. Picking someone to guide you or a loved one in making change is difficult and can be overwhelming.

"Are you tired of walking around on eggshells, hoping and praying things change? You feel stuck in your relationship, friendship, or job that is not healthy for you or others?You know things need to change but aren't sure what to do? Perhaps you see dynamics in the family you grew up in that you'd like to be different in your own family. It could be that you've reached a point in life when what you've always done is no longer working or getting you what you want. You want to feel hope and strength to make the changes you see are necessary."

"Healthy relationships are not the mystery that most of us believe them to be. Love may be the reason that we commit to a relationship, but few know how to sustain that wonderful, secure feeling. There are skills that all of us must learn in order to create and manage our relationships so that our dreams don't go the way of statistics and have us end up separated from our loved one. While individual therapy has been linked to worsening relationship issues, my research-based training provides the opposite: HOPE. Let me work with you to stop the negative patterns that are taking you away from the partnership you wish to have. "

"Do you feel over-extended and worn thin? Like you can't put one more thing on your to-do list? Do you find yourself reaching for unhealthy ways of coping with your stress--overeating, drugs or alcohol, another damaging relationship? Sometimes staying busy can be an unhealthy way of coping in itself. If any of this sounds familiar, I want to help you find balance, reduce those stressful feelings, and work toward goals that truly align with your values. Intentional, empowered, & connected are words that guide my approach to counseling."

"Your story matters. Whether it's your marriage, childhood harm, emotional pain, self-image and shame, or other difficulty, there is hope. The complexities of life touch each of us. This is why I became a therapist: to walk alongside those whose stories are painful or could use clarity and compassion to better understand."

"Infidelity can paralyze any relationship. However, hope, healing and a future are possible. As a couples relationship expert, I specialize in the complex issues of infidelity and sexual health. I treat a wide range of sexual health concerns from performance anxiety, to medical illness and sexuality, sexual identity, infertility, painful sex, desire discrepancy, compulsive pornography use, and other general sexual functioning and relationship issues. Please contact me to check availability as I fill quickly. "

"At times, anxiety and depression can hold you back from living the life you want. This affects our relationships, parenting, social life, our careers and living out our fullest potential. If your struggling with a thought life that leans more on the negative side and doesn't align with who you are or who you want to be, I can help. "

"As a therapist, I find fulfillment in my role to encourage and walk alongside individuals seeking to reach their goals, conquer life's challenges, transition into the next chapter of their lives, and find their own lives' callings and fulfillments. I also recognize that life has many phases and feel equally called to journey with individuals seeking to find solace after a storm, direction on how to take their first steps after the dust from a previous season has settled, and ways to be at peace in the present on the way to where they are going."

"Many times the things we experience in our day to day lives cause us to question, worry, disengage from family, cope in unhelpful ways or mistrust. Do you ever find yourself wishing someone was there to listen, wanting to share quirks you see in your children or loved ones with someone unbiased, feeeling exasperated or like no one “gets it”? I’d love to sit with you and hear what life has thrown your way so that you feel heard. Once that happens we can tackle whatever struggles have created a barrier in your life. "

"Each one of us face moments in life when we could use help in finding our way. Perhaps life's problems have left you feeling helpless and you are not sure how to regain control over your situation. Maybe fear and anxiety have begun to limit the joy and happiness you are able to feel. It might be that you're athletic or work performance has plateaued and you are looking for a mental edge to function at optimal efficiency. Seeking help from a qualified therapist is a great start toward improving your situation."

"I am a Masters Level Therapist with 13+ years experience. I specialize in children/teen issues; however, I also work with adults, marriage/family/parenting issues, and mental health disorders, such as Depression and Anxiety. As a former teacher, I have a unique combination of experiences that contribute to my success in working with youth. When counseling school age children, I involve the client's entire environment (parents, teachers, etc.) to develop a comprehensive plan in treating the whole client. I am also able to go into the schools to see clients during non-essential classes. I am a member of the AACC."

"Young adults are my passion! I've worked extensively with this population through graduate school, internships, and for the past nine years as a Professional Counselor. Although I do see a broad age range, including teens and occasionally children, the majority of my clients are young or older adults seeking individual counseling. Many clients see me specifically for a christian approach, but I respect any belief system clients bring with them. You CAN find healing, and this is a safe place to start!! You can find more info at https://www.traversecounselingservices.com/ (under the counselors tab)."

"I have been working in the mental health field since 1995 and with both adolescents and adults. I have worked in a variety of settings, including residential, in-home, and outpatient. Some particular areas of focus are: emotional issues that disrupt one's life (including anxiety, stress, anger management and depression), parenting struggles, adolescent and young adult issues, parent/child relationships and improving/enhancing marital relationships. My therapeutic model is eclectic and utilizes multiple techniques."

"Families, relationships and connections with others impact your quality of life, mental health, and physical health. Relationships cause great joy and unfortunately can cause great pain when they are toxic or off track. Are past relationships haunting your current relationship or self-image? Do you have difficulty forming or maintaining relationships with friends or significant others? Suffered abuse or abandonment in a relationship? Experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one? Have you experienced infidelity in your marriage? These difficult experiences can feel like they define you and become overwhelming at times, but there is hope!"

"I love working with people and especially enjoy offering help to the grieving, hurting, confused and overwhelmed. I am a certified facilitator of the Marriage and Pre-Marital program "Prepare/Enrich" and have worked with countless couples to restore, enhance and enrich their marriage relationships. I have worked with hundreds of college students, teens, adolescent's and their parents since April of 1987. I offer a faith-based approach in counseling but likewise respect the wishes of clients that prefer a non-faith, CBT method at my personal office, and work in a clinical setting under supervision at HMS."

"Young children experience many of the same emotions adults do. However, Children have a hard time communicating and expressing their feelings due to not understanding how or why they feel the way they do. Having an emotional vocabulary and finding solutions to dealing with these emotions are goals that can be used throughout Counseling. Children and adolescents need a place to be able to express themselves, understand why they feel the way they do. Candice has training and experience in working with children and adolescents ages 5-18 with anxiety, anger, trauma, divorce, depression, behavioral issues."

"Life often has bumps in the road. As a counselor, my goal is to help clients navigate life’s challenges in order to experience healing and growth. As a marriage and family therapist, I help couples, families, and individuals explore how family dynamics and past history can impact current relationships and individual well-being."
