Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect during my first therapy session?
Your first session is an intake appointment where Candice gets to know you, your history, and your goals. She'll ask about what brought you to therapy, your background, and what you hope to achieve. Together, you'll create a personalized treatment plan. Most clients feel relief just from having a safe space to talk.
How long are therapy sessions?
Standard therapy sessions are 45-50 minutes. The frequency depends on your needs — most clients start with weekly sessions and transition to biweekly as they progress.
Do you prescribe medication?
No. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Candice provides therapy and counseling but does not prescribe medication. If medication may be helpful, she can coordinate with your primary care physician or a psychiatrist.
What's the difference between a therapist and a psychiatrist?
A therapist (like an LCSW) provides talk therapy, coping strategies, and behavioral interventions. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who primarily manages medication. Many people benefit from both. Candice provides the therapy side and can refer for medication management if needed.
Is therapy confidential?
Yes. Everything discussed in therapy is strictly confidential, with rare exceptions required by law (imminent danger to self or others, suspected child/elder abuse). Candice will explain these boundaries during your first session.
How do I know if therapy is working?
Progress looks different for everyone. Common signs include feeling less overwhelmed, using new coping strategies, improved relationships, better sleep, and a general sense that things are getting easier. Candice regularly checks in on your progress and adjusts the treatment plan as needed.
