Candice Schalit
Welcome! My name is Candice Schalit. I was born and raised in the Bronx, New York, to immigrant parents. My parents instilled in me a passion for being an active listener, and with that, I speak from a position of compassion and knowledge. I enjoy the field of mental health and helping others create balance with their mental health. I am licensed in GA, SC, and ME. I am committed to helping my clients move from anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and unhealthy relationship patterns toward confidence, healthy boundaries, and emotional stability.
My therapy tone is supportive and challenging, designed to help you reach your desired position in life.

First session
In our first session, we will work on rapport building and getting to know each other. I will gather information about your mental/medical history and work on establishing your treatment plan. Please complete all intake documents prior to your first session.
Strengths
My biggest strengths are being a great listener, challenging, supportive, and compassionate. I believe these areas are important when building a safe space with a client and nurturing growth.
Ideal clients
I love working with clients that are open to change and motivated to trying new concepts to improving their life trajectory.
Origin story
I was drawn to becoming a therapist because I have always valued creating a space where people feel heard, supported, and understood. Over time, I became especially interested in helping individuals work through difficult life experiences, recognize their strengths, and develop healthier ways of coping, communicating, and moving forward. What continues to inspire me is being able to walk alongside clients as they gain insight, rebuild confidence, establish healthier boundaries, and create meaningful change in their lives. I believe therapy can be a place where people feel safe enough to be honest, challenged enough to grow, and supported enough to recognize that change is possible.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive behavior therapy is my primary treatment method as it helps our mind correct our conditioned patterns and behaviors.
Solution-Focused Brief Treatment
a short-term, future-oriented therapy focusing on building solutions and identifying client strengths, rather than dwelling on problems or past causes, using techniques like the "miracle question" and "scaling questions" to help clients visualize goals and create practical steps for change.
