Who We Serve
Children
As a therapist, We work with children as young as 3 years old as well as adolescents who have endured trauma in their lives and assist them to overcome these struggles and move forward towards a healthy and happy life.
Families
When trauma occurs, it often affects families as a whole. From this perspective, it is important to not only treat the individual but also to work with all family members to grow stronger together. These situations are delicate and it is important to acknowledge the positive effect of the entire family healing together.
Adults
Trauma can happen to anyone at any age. We help adults move forward from past or recent trauma so they are able to heal and learn to live in the present.
In Person & Telehealth Options
Domestic Abuse
Children often are not able to verbalize that someone has harmed them physically or sexually and therefore it is expressed through their behaviors. The #1 reason children do not disclose ongoing abuse is fear! They are afraid they won’t be believed, that they or you will be harmed, or they will be blamed for the abuse. It is important that they learn to reframe negative cognitions associated with the trauma to facilitate safe and healthy relationships moving forward.
We are committed to advocating for children and helping them find their voice. Often these cases end up in court where our counselors have testified as an expert witnesses. We will always support the child and their family in any decisions that they may make during the entire process of healing.
"Candace has faithfully worked with the children I have fostered and has been the epitome of both knowledge and compassion while working with them. She is excellent at understanding what most feel can’t be understood and finds ease conversing what most find difficult to talk about. Rather than being overwhelmed by what lies behind, Candace devotedly walks with the clients she serves, guiding them to their better days ahead."
