About Candace
Candace Griffith is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 20 years of experience. She focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges with concentration and focus that people often call ADHD. Candace aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and respectful.
Candace creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk about what matters to them. She listens for patterns that cause distress and helps clients try small, practical changes that can make day-to-day life easier.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and grounded in real tasks rather than abstract theory. Her work includes helping people cope with major life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, and feelings of low self-esteem. She also supports clients dealing with anger, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood concerns, and veteran and armed forces issues.
The focus is on managing symptoms and improving routines that get in the way of daily functioning. Candace uses evidence-based techniques and adapts them to each person's needs and pace. She encourages collaborative goal setting so progress is practical and visible.
Over time clients build skills for better concentration, steadier moods, and clearer thinking. She offers sessions in formats that fit busy lives, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Candace is licensed in Georgia as an LMFT and works with English-speaking clients in that region.
Evidence-based strategies and flexible online care
Candace works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage mood and focus problems. One common approach uses practical behavioral strategies to build routines, improve concentration, and reduce overwhelm by breaking tasks into smaller steps. This helps when symptoms of poor focus or ADHD make daily tasks feel unmanageable.Another approach emphasizes short skills-based practice for anxiety and stress. It teaches simple coping tools people can use during high-stress moments, such as grounding exercises, breathing strategies, and brief behavioral experiments to test new ways of responding. These techniques aim to reduce distress and create more predictable daily rhythms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review a person's goals, daily routines, and preferences, then suggest techniques to try. Treatment is collaborative and adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth for a reliable check-in, live chat can be useful for brief problem-solving, and text messaging supports ongoing communication between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work or family schedules and to continue care despite travel or relocation.
