Getting to know Candace Love

Childhood trauma can deeply affect how we relate to others as adults, often causing conflict in relationships. With compassionate, trauma-informed couples therapy, Candace Love, MA, LCSW, who earned her Master's in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago, helps partners understand how their past experiences shape current behaviors. Together, we'll work on communication, emotional intimacy, and developing a more resilient connection.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach truly depends on the person in front of me. I believe in meeting clients where they are and doing the work collaboratively. I also see each client as an individual, so I will work with a client through the best framework for their individual needs, which may include Emotional Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Psychodynamic Theory. If other frameworks work best for the client, we will explore those at that time. My style also includes breathing exercises throughout the session when needed, as we all forget that breathing impacts our bodies and assists us through a mental health crisis moment.
