How her approaches fit into online therapy
Candace uses client-centered therapy to follow each person’s pace and priorities. This approach focuses on listening, understanding, and shaping sessions around what the client wants to work on. It can help when someone needs a steady, empathetic space to sort feelings and goals.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. CBT tools can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching ways to reframe unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. Solution-focused therapy is used to identify strengths and build quick, practical steps toward goals, which can be useful when someone wants concrete progress in a few sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about needs, goals, and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit the client’s situation. Adjustments are made as work proceeds so the plan stays useful and realistic.
