About Candace
Dr. Candace Body is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. She works with adults facing parenting strain, career questions, grief, trauma, and challenges with attention and impulsivity.
Her style is straightforward and focused on practical steps people can use day to day. She blends conversation with hands-on strategies. Sessions often look at patterns of thinking and behavior, and then try small changes to see what helps.
How Candace works
She also draws on mindfulness to calm strong emotions and on solution-focused techniques to set concrete goals and next steps. Dr. Body brings two decades of experience across outpatient and residential settings.
That background includes individual and group work with people coping with trauma, depression, and ADHD-related behaviors. Her years in those settings shaped how she balances empathy with clear direction. In a typical session she listens for what feels most urgent.
Then she and the person pick a few practical actions to try between sessions. Progress is tracked in small, measurable ways so people can see what is changing. People who want coaching around career direction, help with parenting stress, or support through life changes often choose her because she combines warmth with structure.
She accepts English-speaking clients in Georgia and works with international clients as well.

Online support options
How her approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in the room. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build trust and identify priorities. This approach helps when someone needs space to be heard and to clarify what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. Sessions involve noticing patterns, testing small behavior changes, and using practical skills to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness exercises to calm intense emotions and improve concentration during stressful moments.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If one strategy doesn't help, she and the client adjust the plan together until they find what works best.
Online formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper connection is helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick coaching moments, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options give flexibility for people juggling work, family, or caregiving responsibilities.
