02 · In Candace's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. With over a decade of clinical experience, I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and trauma. My approach is grounded in compassion and a deep commitment to helping you reconnect with your sense of self-worth and purpose.
I specialize in addressing self-esteem concerns, communication struggles, isolation, social anxiety, guilt and shame, and the lasting effects of trauma and abuse. I also support clients working through life transitions like divorce, attachment challenges, caregiver stress, and mood-related concerns. My work includes helping you develop forgiveness, establish healthy boundaries, and build meaningful connections with others and yourself.
As a Black therapist who integrates faith-centered perspectives into my practice, I honor the unique experiences and values you bring to our work together. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where you are the expert of your own story, and I'm here to walk alongside you with genuine care and understanding. I'm proud of you for taking this courageous step toward healing and growth.

03 · What happens next
Candace practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Candace's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Candace at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Candace is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Candace.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Candace actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Candace's - Candace has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
