About Candace
Candace Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports people coping with addiction, trauma and abuse, anger, career changes, and compassion fatigue. Candace works with issues related to adoption and foster care, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, and life transitions.
She brings 15 years of experience in mental health and uses a practical, person-centered way of working.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the client now. Candace listens, reflects, and helps people name difficult feelings so they can make workable changes. Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotions in relationships, Client-Centered Therapy to keep the client’s goals central, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and patterns that keep people stuck.
She also uses mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing to support change and increase self-awareness. Candace trained with hospital-based psychiatric practicum experience, including psychiatric assessments, crisis intervention, and psychoeducational groups. That background informs her ability to assess risk, manage strong emotions, and offer steady support during transitions.
Work in sessions is straightforward and collaborative. People can expect clear goals, practical skills to practice between meetings, and a focus on repairing emotional connection where it matters most. Candace offers care in English and practices from Georgia as an LPC.

Online support
How emotion-focused and practical methods work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions shape close connections and personal patterns. Online sessions can help people notice, name, and shift difficult emotional cycles in relationships or within themselves. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person’s own goals and pace, giving space for people to talk and be heard without judgment. That approach helps clients feel understood and in charge of the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which combination of methods fits best. That decision is based on the client’s needs, preferences, and goals, and may shift over time as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for deeper conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, handle short check-ins, or continue work when travel or schedules change.
