About Candice
Candice Halley, LCMHC, helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and challenges around self-esteem and career decisions. She also supports individuals facing addictions, relationship or intimacy concerns, parenting strain, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and the ripple effects of chronic illness or caregiver stress. Candice works in North Carolina and brings 16 years of clinical experience to her practice.
Candice uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. She listens first, then helps clients set practical steps to manage symptoms and reach goals. Sessions often include learning new coping skills, practicing communication, and trying behavior changes between meetings. The aim is steady progress rather than instant fixes.
Her approach draws on several therapy methods to suit different needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in each person’s values and priorities.
Candice also weaves in mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing when people need help building momentum or staying focused on changes. She frames work as a collaboration and adjusts methods to what actually helps a person in day-to-day life. She does not claim quick cures but focuses on small, usable shifts.
People considering therapy with Candice start by sharing what matters most to them. From there she helps set clear, practical goals and supports measurable steps toward them. Her background supports dealing with both sudden life changes and long-term struggles.
How these approaches translate to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and change patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or trouble sleeping. Online sessions can focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, setting small behavior experiments, and reviewing progress between meetings.Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing harmful reactions. In remote sessions the therapist can teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills, then coach practice during follow-up.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Candice will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. Together they prioritize what feels most useful and adjust methods if something isn’t helping.
