About Candice

Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people untangle stress, anxiety, relationship strains, parenting challenges, and everyday thoughts and habits. She welcomes clients who are dealing with grief, trauma, mood struggles, or changes in work and family life. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on small, doable steps.

Candice draws on more than 13 years of clinical experience. She uses straightforward, collaborative work to help people notice patterns in thinking and behavior and try new ways of responding. Her style mixes warm support with gentle challenge so clients can make meaningful changes without feeling overwhelmed.

She often uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. Mindfulness exercises and solution-focused techniques are added when they fit a person’s goals. Dialectical behavior ideas can help people manage big emotions and build better coping skills.

Growing up in the Bronx as the child of immigrant parents shaped Candice’s view of resilience and diverse perspectives. She now lives and practices in Georgia while also pursuing doctoral studies. That background informs her emphasis on practical strengths and culturally aware care.

Candice offers remote work and aims to make therapy fit daily life. She invites prospective clients to consider what they want to change and to bring that into the first conversation. The focus is on clear goals, steady progress, and routines that support lasting shifts.

Approaches that support change in online sessions

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and habits that feed stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers on understanding each person’s experience and building a trusting working relationship; this helps people feel heard and decide on goals that matter to them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication, which can help with anger, relationship strain, and overwhelming mood swings.

Choosing the right method is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try options that fit their needs and preferences. Sessions often mix approaches so the work stays practical and focused on what will make daily life easier.

For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking so you know what remote formats are available. Online work can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it easier to use in-the-moment tools such as brief breathing practices or behavior experiments between sessions.
