About Candice

Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, trauma and depression. She works with adults on concerns like parenting strain, sleep problems, grief, self-esteem, career shifts, ADHD, and sexual intimacy difficulties. Her tone is warm and direct, aimed at people who want practical changes and clearer direction.

She brings 13 years of clinical experience to each session and draws on her upbringing in a multicultural family to inform her perspective. Sessions blend empathy with gentle challenge so clients can try new ways of coping. Candice emphasizes simple, concrete steps alongside chances to process difficult feelings.

Her approach mixes client-centered listening with evidence-informed tools. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Mindfulness and dialectical skills help people manage intense emotions and stay grounded in stressful moments.

Candice also uses solution-focused methods to set achievable short-term goals. This often means choosing one manageable change to try between sessions and noticing its effects. Over time those small shifts add up to clearer patterns and better functioning.

She offers remote sessions for people who need flexibility and wants to collaborate on a plan that fits daily life. To begin, prospective clients use the platform’s Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows your lead, reflects your experience, and helps you clarify what matters most. This approach is useful when someone needs acceptance and a space to sort through feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. Sessions include practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and develop new routines. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and problems with self-esteem.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. It includes distress-tolerance strategies and techniques to reduce impulsive reactions, which can be helpful for anger, relationship conflict, and emotional overwhelm.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That means trying things, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together.

Remote sessions offer flexibility so therapy can fit into busy schedules. Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments, add short check-ins when needed, and use homework exercises between sessions to reinforce progress.
