Candice Crenshaw, LPC

Candice Crenshaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of clinical experience in Alabama. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Candice aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming and begin to make small, steady changes.

Her approach starts with listening. She treats each person as the expert on their own life, and builds on strengths already present. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, using clear strategies to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Candice uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors that lead to better outcomes. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on each person’s priorities and pace. These methods pair work on thinking patterns with practical, real-world steps.

For relationship and family concerns she emphasizes communication and emotional awareness. When grief, trauma, or big life changes come up, she helps people find manageable ways to cope and regain stability. Counseling can include short-term coping tools or longer work on deeper patterns.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Candice speaks English and practices in Alabama. Getting started involves a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability.

Approaches that guide online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors that reduce anxiety and improve mood. It often includes practical exercises to practice between sessions and targets daily problems like worry, avoidance, and low motivation.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s goals and values. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to build trust and clarify what matters most. This approach supports people who want a gentle, respectful space to figure things out.

Finding the right approach is something the therapist will do together with the client. Candice will talk through options, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on needs, goals, and what feels helpful in practice. The work is collaborative and paced to the person’s comfort.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people connect face to face when schedules allow. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you need a quicker check-in. Live chat and messaging offer short, flexible check-ins or ongoing written work between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life and to use methods like CBT or Client-Centered work across different situations.
