About Candice
Candice Hart is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Oklahoma with three years of direct therapy experience and a longer background in the mental health field. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes, and lists additional focuses including guilt and shame.
Candice draws on her own life experience alongside clinical work to help people talk through painful memories and current struggles. She uses straightforward conversation and practical skill-building to address overwhelming feelings and recurring patterns that keep someone stuck.
Her approach blends evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with Attachment-Based and Client-Centered work. That mix is used to look at thoughts, behaviors, and relational patterns that contribute to shame, guilt, and anxiety.
In sessions she often helps people notice unhelpful thinking, practice new behavioral experiments, and build toleration for difficult emotions. For someone carrying guilt or shame, she aims to clarify what keeps those feelings active and to develop steps that reduce their daily impact.
Candice also uses techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. She encourages realistic, manageable changes rather than large promises, and she works collaboratively to set goals that fit a person’s life.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without letting them dictate actions, then choose values-based steps forward. It is useful for shame and guilt that keep someone stuck in avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to change mood and daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and recurring self-critical thoughts.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Candice will work with a client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and shifting focus when a different tool would be more useful.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people work on skills from their usual surroundings, practice new behaviors between sessions, and use worksheets or exercises together in real time. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, ACT, and DBT techniques to an online setting while collaborating with clients on what works best for them.
