Candice Coward-Schalit, LPC — Therapist in Georgia

Hi there, I'm Candice!

I was born and raised in the Bronx to immigrant parents who instilled in me a passion for active listening. I speak from a position of compassion and knowledge, and I enjoy helping others create balance with their mental health. I am committed to being your co-pilot on your journey to becoming the best version of yourself.

My focus

My client focus is on clients who are open and willing to put in the work towards change.

My approach

My therapeutic approach is nurturing yet challenging, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Trauma-Focused, and Client-Centered Therapy.

My communication style

I have a warm communication style, and my therapy tone is supportive and challenging, designed to help you reach your desired position in life. Whether it's a five-year or six-month plan, I'm here to help you every step of the way. I look forward to working with you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I entered the mental health field because I'm passionate about helping people find balance and become their best selves. Active listening and compassion guide my work, and I'm honored to walk alongside clients as they grow.

My goals for you

I help you reach your goals by creating a collaborative space where we identify what matters most to you, then build practical strategies and skills you can use in daily life. Together, we'll work toward the changes you want to see.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. I'll ask about your goals and what you hope to achieve. This is a safe space for you to share openly, and we'll begin mapping out a plan that works for you.
