Dr. Candace Body (LPC)

Greetings, My name is Dr. Candace Body Williams, and it is an honor to be considered as a potential partner on your journey. I am a Georgia-based, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years’ experience working with emotionally challenged youth, ADHD related behaviors, child/adult depression management, and trauma. Often, co-occurring issues include: depression, anxiety, bi-polar disorder, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive compulsive behaviors, and, of course, relationship challenges. My experience includes individual and group therapy in residential and outpatient settings of a Community Mental Health Center and group home settings. I would describe my approach to therapy as eclectic, drawing on a variety of modalities to best serve a client’s needs and goals. The modalities that have proven most useful are: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-focused Therapy (SFT), Mindfulness-based Therapy, and Family Systems. Finally, I view the therapeutic alliance as a partnership requiring mutual trust, respect, honesty, communication, and commitment to do the work. Hopefully, what I have shared here will help you select the best fit for a therapist. Should you select me, I look forward to our journey together.
