About Candice

Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are managing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, and family challenges. She also lists blended family issues among her focus areas and accepts clients from other countries in English.

Candice uses clear, practical conversation to help people sort their immediate problems. She draws on client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Her approach balances encouragement with gentle challenge. Sessions aim to identify doable steps for change, sharpen communication, and improve day-to-day functioning. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when those issues come up in relationships or parenting situations.

In cases involving traumatic events or long-standing patterns, she brings trauma-focused and mindfulness strategies into sessions. These tools are used to reduce reactivity and improve coping with stress, sleep disruption, grief, or anger. Solution-focused ideas are applied when people want short-term, goal-oriented work.

Candice mentions experience with a broad range of concerns including ADHD, bipolar mood issues, eating and body-image difficulties, fertility and caregiver stress. She frames therapy as collaborative problem-solving and asks clients to agree on small measurable goals so progress can be tracked.

How her approaches translate to remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. In practice this means sessions start by identifying the client's priorities and concerns, then shaping the work around those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be used for anxiety, sleep problems, mood, and everyday stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness; it is often used when people struggle with strong reactions or relationship conflicts.

Candice treats finding the right approach as a collaborative step. She will discuss which methods might fit a person's situation and adapt plans as needs and goals become clearer. Clients and therapist check progress and change direction if something is not working.

The biography indicates she offers remote sessions, but it does not list exact formats. Before booking, confirm which session types are available. Remote work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from different locations. Those practical benefits often help people maintain consistency while they address relationship and blended household challenges.
