About Candace
Candace Gregg, LISW-CP, focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for parents and individuals facing stressful life changes. She meets people where they are and helps them find clearer steps forward. Her approach aims to make overwhelmed days feel more manageable and bring relief from persistent worries.
Candace has worked in social work and addiction settings since 2013, giving her nine years of clinical experience. That background includes emergency rooms, home-based care, community mental health centers, personal outpatient programs, and inpatient psychiatric settings.
Background and approach
Those varied roles inform how she tailors care to everyday life demands. She blends several methods so each session fits the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Motivational Interviewing supports people finding their own reasons to make lasting changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness techniques focus on values and present-moment awareness when worry or mood get in the way. Candace also has experience with addiction-related concerns and co-occurring issues, and she uses practical tools to manage cravings, urges, and relapse triggers.
She can talk through sleep, anger, or grief concerns and offer realistic strategies parents can try between sessions. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. Sessions are collaborative - she listens, offers clear options, and helps set small, achievable goals.
Many people come wanting steadier routines, better coping skills, or clearer boundaries, and she focuses on steps that fit daily life.

Therapeutic tools that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose small steps that align with personal values. It can be useful for chronic worry, mood challenges, and parenting decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and behavior changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger communication, which can help when emotions feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try a few techniques, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods fit a person's situation and preferences.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face time for deeper work, phone sessions can fit a shorter check-in, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick problem-solving between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, school, and parenting schedules while using the approaches described above in real life.
