ABOUT CANDICE
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC #006132) with a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling and a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences from the University of Central Florida. I’ve been trained and have certificates in Career Counseling, Multi-Dimensional Family Therapy (MDFT), and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavior Therapy.
My experience as a therapist ranges in work with adolescents, families and adults navigating and specializing in:
Depression
Anxiety
Women’s Issues
Cultural Identity
Personal Development & Self-Esteem
Career & Life Transitions
Substance Use
Relationship Issues
In addition to my clinical experience, I’m a School Mental Health Consultant for public schools in Brooklyn, spent time teaching at a university in China, and have worked in medical primary care & managed care settings.
I’m a runner, traveler, food-adventurer, mindfulness & meditation enthusiast, and plant-lover. Prospect Park and The Rubin Museum are my NYC sanctuaries and I value authenticity, creativity, and curiosity. I move through the world with many different lenses: a bi-racial woman, a military brat and third culture kid, an ally and advocate, & of course… as a New Yorker.
