About Candice

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama with 8 years of experience, Candice Crenshaw helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns. She also supports parents facing parenting challenges and individuals managing depression, grief, trauma, and identity questions. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on building a client's own strengths.

Crenshaw follows a client-centered model that treats the person as the expert on their life. She combines that stance with cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical behavior techniques are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are a concern.

In conversations she aims to make tasks manageable. That can mean breaking goals into small steps, practicing a new skill in session, or planning a short experiment between meetings. She uses direct feedback and concrete techniques rather than abstract theory.

She also addresses longer-term questions about meaning and values using an existential lens. This helps when people are facing life transitions, questions about purpose, or feelings of isolation.

Crenshaw works with issues that often arise around family systems, adoption and foster care history, attachment, and blended families. She pays attention to multicultural concerns and identity-related stress, including LGBT issues.

To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. Payment is handled through a cancellable subscription model that varies by location.

How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working from the client's own goals. In remote sessions this means the clinician follows the person's lead and supports choices about what to work on next. It helps when someone needs validation, clearer priorities, or practical problem solving.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches ways to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Remotely, CBT often includes structured tasks, short written exercises, and planning experiments to try between meetings. It suits worries, low mood, and repetitive thinking patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Online sessions can cover skill teaching, role plays, and brief coaching on applying skills during stressful moments.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will assess needs, discuss options, and tailor methods to the client's goals and preferences. That conversation happens in the first few sessions and can shift as work progresses.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Ask which session types are currently offered. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten check-ins, or avoid travel time, which helps sustain regular appointments and apply skills between sessions.
