Hello! I’m Candice. It’s nice to meet you. I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certified across the lifespan. My career began with a job offer that I had accepted in an interview, but I had to wait until my high school diploma was officially issued to me to officially be hired. That was over 20 years ago, and I can’t imagine doing anything else. It genuinely brings me joy to see others feeling better and doing well and I’ve been told many times It’s obvious to those around me.

When I was a little girl, my anxiety was so bad I found it absolutely terrifying to do even the simplest things like ordering from the ice cream truck. I dealt with crippling fear and self-doubt for decades, starting in those earliest years. Through my personal journey, education, and professional experience, I unraveled the toxic thought process that I had unknowingly worked so hard to perfect all my life. Today, I help others conquer the same sorts of fears and self doubt that used to hold me back. My passion is helping others break free from the patterns that hold them back and experience the life they want.

My experience is with counseling individuals, couples, and groups. Currently, I'm offering in office or tele-therapy sessions. I enjoy helping people who suffer with anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder, sleep issues and who have experienced trauma in their life. Counseling is a second career for me.

On a personal note, I enjoy spending time with my fiance, my pets and friends. Home improvements, cooking, gardening and exercising are what I like to do when I have free time.
