About Candice

Candice Schalit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, LGBT issues, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

Candice grew up in the Bronx as the child of immigrant parents and now lives and practices in Atlanta. That background shapes how she understands culture, family expectations, and resilience. She uses straightforward conversation and practical skills to help people manage day-to-day difficulties.

Her work balances listening with gentle challenge. Sessions may include checking habits, identifying thoughts that make situations harder, and practicing new ways of acting in social or work settings. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice thinking patterns and on Dialectical Behavior Therapy when stronger emotion regulation skills are helpful.

Candice also uses client-centered methods to keep the focus on each person’s priorities. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques appear where they fit - short exercises to steady attention or concrete steps toward an immediate goal. These tools are used alongside longer-term therapeutic themes when needed.

She offers remote sessions so people can fit counseling into their routines. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To get started, a short questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the online options button.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s goals. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist and client set priorities and pace in straightforward conversation, especially when sorting out relationship or family concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at specific thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In remote sessions CBT is often practical - tracking daily patterns, trying short behavioral experiments, and reviewing results together to reduce anxiety and phobic avoidance.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. Online DBT-style work emphasizes skills practice, short coaching during check-ins, and applying techniques to stress or anger as they arise.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that fit goals, comfort level, and what is happening day to day. That choice can shift as progress is made.

The biography mentions remote sessions but does not list specific online formats. Confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy routine, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits around work, childcare, or study.
