About Candice
Candice Alig is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, licensed in Kentucky and Ohio, with eight years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, anger, and bipolar-related issues. She also focuses on caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and substance use concerns.
Candice uses straightforward talk and practical skills in sessions. She often leans on cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and mindfulness practices to help people notice patterns and try small changes. Sessions may include skill practice, reflections on values, and step-by-step behavioral experiments to test what helps.
Her background includes individual and group counseling with people facing substance use challenges, and nearly five years specifically working with addiction-related issues. She holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling and a bachelor’s degree in anthropology, both from Northern Kentucky University.
In the first meetings she focuses on clear goals and small, manageable steps. She checks in about what has already helped and what hasn’t, then introduces skills from CBT, ACT, or mindfulness depending on what fits. Progress is reviewed regularly and plans are adjusted as needed.
Candice speaks English and practices in Kentucky. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To get started, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches map to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help when anxiety, avoidance, or difficult emotions get in the way of things that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses small experiments to test new ways of responding to social stress or anxiety. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.Figuring out which of these methods fits best is part of the work. The therapist will review goals, try an approach, and adjust based on how things go. This is a collaborative process where feedback and practical needs guide the selection of techniques.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They also let people practice skills in the contexts where they struggle, such as preparing for a social event or rehearsing conversation strategies, while working directly with a licensed professional.
