About Candice
Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical help for families and parents facing stress, parenting challenges, and relationship strain. She speaks plainly and works to make therapy feel doable for busy households. Her style blends warmth with straightforward guidance so parents can make small changes that matter.
She practices from Georgia and offers remote sessions to fit family schedules. She has 13 years of clinical experience and has worked with adults, families, and children.
Background and approach
That background informs how she supports family dynamics, blended households, and communication problems. She also addresses common concerns like anxiety, depression, sleep troubles, anger, and ADHD in ways that relate to everyday family life. Candice uses a mix of approaches based on what families need.
She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and build trust, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change patterns that aren’t working, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques for emotion regulation when feelings run high. She also uses mindfulness and solution-focused tools to help with immediate problems.
Her work often includes topics such as attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, caregiving stress, fertility and grief, eating and body image concerns, and domestic violence or safety planning when needed. The focus is on clear goals and practical steps that families can use between sessions. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.
Sessions are delivered via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging so parents can choose what fits their routine.
Therapeutic approaches for online family care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist follows the family’s lead, reflects concerns, and helps parents and caregivers feel heard so they can decide next steps together.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. It uses simple exercises and homework to change patterns around anxiety, sleep, mood, and difficult behaviors common in family life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. These tools help when stress or anger make parenting and relationships harder to navigate.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each family to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences rather than applying a single technique. This helps parents try practical options and adjust them based on what actually helps.
Online therapy makes these approaches accessible in many formats. Sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so families can pick what fits their routine. That flexibility can reduce scheduling barriers and let parents use therapy in ways that work for their household.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
