About Candice

Candice Crenshaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and relationship concerns. She also supports people facing parenting and family challenges, life transitions, and career questions. Candice emphasizes practical steps and steady progress over time.

Her approach begins with listening. She sees each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are centered on what the client wants to change and realistic ways to make that happen.

Candice combines straightforward, skills-based work with deeper conversations about meaning and connection. She draws from client-centered methods to keep the work focused on the client's goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach coping tools for stressful moments.

For people carrying trauma, relationship pain, or grief, she offers a calm, steady presence and a plan for moving forward. Candice can help with intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, ADHD-related concerns, and multicultural or LGBT-related stress. She often blends practical strategies with conversations about values and purpose.

She understands that starting therapy takes courage and treats that decision with respect. If you want a therapist who listens, names clear next steps, and helps you practice new ways of coping, Candice may be a good fit.

How therapy approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building on a person's strengths, helping people find their own answers and set clear goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving how someone copes in difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice can shift over time as progress is made or new challenges appear.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support consistent practice of skills between sessions. Ask about available session formats when you start the matching process so you can pick what fits your schedule and routine.
