About Candice

Candice Alig is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with independent licensure in Kentucky and Ohio and eight years of experience in the mental health field. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, addictions, self-esteem, grief, parenting challenges, relationship and family conflict, bipolar mood concerns, and anger. Her background includes individual and group counseling across these areas.

Candice draws on practical, evidence-informed methods in sessions. She often uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas appear when clients want to clarify values and take action even with difficult feelings. Mindfulness practices are offered to help with stress regulation and grounding.

Candice holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling and a bachelor’s degree in anthropology, both from Northern Kentucky University. She favors straightforward sessions where people talk through their struggles, notice patterns, and practice small changes between meetings.

Her style is direct and person-focused. She helps people name problems, try skills such as DBT techniques for emotional regulation, and build on strengths to manage stress, resentment, and recurrent anger.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Online sessions can include structured exercises and homework to practice between meetings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking action even when emotions are uncomfortable. That approach supports work on anger, commitment issues, and life changes. Mindfulness-based practices teach simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and manage stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made based on what helps in practice.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since format details are not provided here. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and making scheduling easier. It can also allow shorter check-ins, camera-off options, or sessions timed around work or caregiving needs depending on what formats the therapist offers.
