Candice Schalit, LPC

Candice Schalit is a licensed professional counselor who aims to help people facing major midlife questions and everyday struggles. She offers steady support for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting pressures, sleep problems, ADHD, and life transitions. Candice writes plainly and listens closely to help clients find clearer direction and steadier footing.

She draws on more than 13 years of clinical experience and a background shaped by growing up in the Bronx as the child of immigrant parents. That life story is part of how she respects cultural differences and understands resilience. Her work balances warmth with gentle challenge to encourage meaningful change.

In sessions she focuses on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that keep people stuck. Methods she uses include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques. These are applied in simple, concrete ways tailored to each person's goals.

Candice describes her style as supportive yet direct. She will listen, reflect, and offer exercises or small experiments to try between meetings. The aim is clearer thinking, improved coping, and better day-to-day functioning.

She practices from Georgia and provides services remotely. People who speak English can work with her, and she accepts international clients. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep disruption, and stress by turning ideas into small, doable tasks.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotion, improving relationships, and tolerating distress. Sessions often introduce simple skills like grounding, emotion regulation, and interpersonal techniques that can be practiced between meetings.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past to decide which combination of methods to try. Plans are adjusted over time based on what works for the individual.

Remote therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as scheduling during a work break or avoiding travel time. Because formats are not fully listed in the biography, confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or another arrangement is available. Many people find online sessions helpful for keeping continuity of care while balancing everyday responsibilities.
