About Candice
Candice Yeargin is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 20 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and codependency. Sessions focus on clear communication and practical steps clients can use outside of appointments.
Candice values honesty and straightforward conversation. She invites clients to take the lead in setting goals and deciding what they want from therapy. Expect direct discussion of current problems, with attention to how patterns in relationships and family of origin may keep old problems repeating.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centered work, and cognitive behavioral techniques. That mix is used to help identify unhelpful thoughts, understand relational patterns, and build new ways of responding. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools are used when people need short-term direction or help to make practical changes.
Candice trained in community counseling after earning a master’s degree in Education with a counseling focus, and she also holds a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. Over two decades in practice she has worked with people at various stages of life and with a wide range of concerns. She mentions experience addressing family issues, addiction, and trauma among other areas.
She works in Illinois and conducts sessions in English. International clients are accepted. Prospective clients should confirm the current session formats before booking and can begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing symptoms day to day. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current relationships and helps people notice and shift those patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences during early sessions and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process helps focus on what the client wants to change and which tools will fit best.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose whether to be on camera. Licensed professionals can use video or phone options that match a client’s schedule and comfort, and this therapist accepts international clients, so discuss format and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
