Candice Mitchell, LMHC

Candice Mitchell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping adults who feel stuck by anxiety, depression, trauma, and related stress. Candice keeps sessions steady and paced to what each person needs in the moment.

She came to this work after seeing how anxiety and trauma quietly reshape daily life. Sleep, relationships, confidence, and a sense of safety can erode without obvious cause. That experience shaped her decision to build a trauma-informed private practice in Florida where clients can work toward feeling calmer and more grounded.

Intake conversations are unhurried and aim to learn what a person is carrying. Early sessions prioritize building trust and a sense of safety. From there she helps people notice how stress shows up in their body and mind so they can try small, practical changes.

Candice uses approaches that emphasize present-focused skills and collaborative planning. She often incorporates cognitive behavioral strategies and client-centered techniques to address patterns of thinking and behavior. Mindfulness practices and solution-focused tools are woven in to support clearer goals and day-to-day coping.

She also brings motivational interviewing ideas when people face big life decisions or resistance to change. Sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines and needs. Counseling is offered in English and is provided from Florida.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around what the person says matters most. It helps people feel heard and more able to explore difficult topics at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It uses clear, practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice present-moment experience without judgment. These brief practices can help with emotion regulation, sleep struggles, and reducing reactivity.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick strategies that match goals, needs, and comfort level. Treatment plans are adjusted as progress is made so the approach fits over time.

Online sessions offer flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill practice and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good fit when being on camera is distracting. Live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, shorter updates, and ongoing reflection between sessions.
