About Candice
Therapist. Facilitator. Speaker. Community Builder.
Hi, I'm Candice! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, speaker, youth development professional, wife, and mom of four—from preschool to college. For more than 20 years, I've worked alongside youth, families, and communities—helping people navigate life's challenges and discover their strengths.
My journey began in community and youth development before expanding into mental health therapy, where I now help individuals and families heal, communicate more effectively, and create healthier relationships. As a Black woman, first generation college graduate, and daughter of a teen mother, I understand the power of resilience—and that survival and healing are not the same thing.
Whether I'm working with a woman learning to set boundaries, a family navigating change, or a room full of teenagers developing life skills, my goal stays the same: to help people heal, grow, and thrive.

She Chooses Herself™
The Return to Self Lab for Women in a Season of Change.
Come back to yourself.
Choose from there.
Build a life that actually fits.
She Chooses Herself™ is a 6-week live virtual Lab for women 23–39 navigating breakups, friendship shifts, identity change and the question: What do I want now?
The A.U.R.A.™ Framework
A
Awareness
What is happening in me and around me?
U
Understanding
What pattern, story or experience is shaping how I see this?
R
Regulation
What helps me stay present enough to choose instead of react?
A
Align With Power
What choice reflects the woman I am becoming?
A.U.R.A.™ helps you move from reaction to response — and from confusion to clear choice.
The Signature 6-Week Curriculum™
Week 1
The Choosing Season
Identify what is changing, what you are carrying and what actually needs your attention now.
Week 2
Grief Without Permission
Make space for the losses other people may minimize — relationships, friendships, expectations and former versions of yourself.
Week 3
Pattern, Person + Projection
Separate what is happening now from the patterns, fears and previous experiences influencing how you interpret it.
Week 4
Body Before Decision
Learn practical regulation strategies so anxiety, rejection, loneliness or emotional urgency do not make every decision for you.
Week 5
Boundaries That Change Behavior
Move beyond explaining your boundaries and create standards with clear requests, consequences and follow through.
Week 6
The Choice Plan
Rebuild reciprocal connection, recover your voice and turn insight into a personalized 90-day plan.
