About Candice

Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who offers supportive, direct therapy for adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and related challenges. She writes in a straightforward way and focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. Candice brings 13 years of clinical experience and a down-to-earth style to sessions.

She was raised in the Bronx by immigrant parents and now lives in Georgia while also working toward a PhD. Those life experiences shaped how she listens and responds. She emphasizes resilience, cultural perspective, and finding meaning amid hard moments.

Candice combines empathy with goal-oriented work. Sessions mix talking, skill-building, and short-term plans designed to reduce distress and improve coping. She uses approaches such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused methods to tailor work to each person.

Clients can expect a blend of encouragement and challenge aimed at practical change. Candice helps people handle issues like ADHD, sleep problems, anger, body image concerns, parenting stress, intimacy and commitment questions, and coping with life changes. She also addresses family-related stress, eating and fertility concerns, and grief.

She practices in Georgia and conducts remote sessions. If a reader is ready to begin, the next step is to follow the site process to match and schedule a time to talk.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include straightforward exercises, thought records, and practical homework to reduce anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. When adapted to brief online sessions, DBT skills can help with anger, intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Remote therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for consistent weekly check-ins. Because the biography lists remote sessions but does not specify exact formats, confirm which session types are offered before booking. Licensed professionals can use these online conversations to teach coping skills, try behavioral experiments, and set small homework tasks that carry over into daily routines.
