About Candace
Candace Harren is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Minnesota with 15 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem concerns, depression, compassion fatigue, and related issues such as social anxiety and phobia.
Candace uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people name what feels most urgent. She listens to what a client wants to change and helps set clear, short-term goals. Sessions focus on small steps that are doable between meetings.
Her style draws on client-centered methods that put the client's perspective first. She also uses solution-focused work to identify what’s already working and build on it. Together these approaches aim to reduce overwhelming thoughts and increase manageable actions.
Candace has worked with people facing caregiver stress, adoption and foster care concerns, cancer and hospice related issues, divorce and separation, substance use, and persistent feelings of emptiness, guilt, or shame. She also supports people dealing with personality concerns and seasonal mood shifts.
She communicates in English and accepts clients from outside the United States who are able to work across time zones. Fees vary by location and are billed through a cancellable subscription model. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Candace uses client-centered therapy and solution-focused therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy centers on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client, helping them speak about worries and priorities in their own words. Solution-focused therapy looks for small, practical changes a person can try between sessions and tracks what helps most.Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then recommend ways of working together. The plan can be adjusted as sessions continue so methods fit the person’s needs.
Practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online sessions can reduce travel time and make it simpler to check in during a lunch break or between appointments. Confirm the exact session options and formats before booking to match timing and technical needs, since session formats are determined when you arrange care.
