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.

Hello! I'm Susan Brock, an Adult and Geriatric Nurse Practitioner with a passion for helping patients achieve better health, particularly in weight management and mental health. My weight loss journey started as a young girl with my mom attending weekly Weight Watchers meetings. Since that time, I have done Jenny Craig, Nutrisystem, Hilton Head Metabolism Diet, Slimfast, Cabbage Soup diet, starved myself, and on and on. I nearly died taking the Phen-Fen combination of meds years ago after only 1 month. I have done Belviq, Contrave, Qsymia, Saxenda, Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass and regained my weight. The struggle is real for me too. With years of experience in both in-person and telehealth settings, I've worked with various clinics and healthcare providers to support adults and seniors in their health journeys. At Weekend Health and Achieve Medical Weight Loss Clinic, I focus on providing personalized weight loss plans, prescribing necessary medications, and closely monitoring patients' progress to ensure they meet their goals. I've also had the privilege of teaching the next generation of nurses as a Clinical Adjunct Professor at Austin Peay State University. Guiding students through clinical rotations and sharing my expertise in mental health care has been incredibly rewarding. Previously, I managed ADHD care through telehealth, ensuring that patients received proper medication and care tailored to their needs. My work at Inovalon involved comprehensive health assessments for insurance carriers, ensuring patients received the preventive screenings and treatments they needed. I've practiced in various states, allowing me to bring diverse experiences and insights to my care approach. My commitment is to create a welcoming and supportive environment for all my patients, helping them navigate their health with confidence. Let’s work together to achieve your health goals! TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: I prefer to be your cheerleader and lift you up.

I've been a licensed counselor since 2016, having found my way to the field after having a career in a completely different one. I specialize in individual and couples therapy, as well as run a few groups. I maintain a private practice in the Kansas City metro area, with a physical location in Overland Park, as well as utilizing video sessions for those outside my immediate area. ​I graduated from Ottawa University with a Master's in Professional Counseling (and an undergrad in Psychology), and worked for a time in group practice in Cheyenne, WY, before moving back home to KC. Prior to entering the counseling field, I spent 15 years working in a natural health setting, which gave me a unique perspective on the ways the body holds on to emotions. I love to find creative ways to work with clients that incorporates all of my life and career experience. It's not unusual for me to practice mindfulness or relaxation exercises during a session with a client, or to incorporate the things a client wishes to into a session. ​Many people hesitate to reach out to a therapist because they're afraid of being judged. My job is not to judge, rather to sit with you, challenge you, and help clear the path to insight for you. It is always an individual's choice whether they act on the things worked on while in session. ​Call me and let's see how we can work together! (Have fun watching my videos and the frozen faces below! I got a good giggle out of some of them!)
