Getting to know Candice Clayton

Hi there, I'm Candice! Hello! My name is Candice Clayton, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience in mental health. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I use a strength-based and solution-focused approach to support your personal growth and mental health journey. My approach I use strength-based, solution-focused, and trauma-informed approaches in my work to ensure you reach your treatment goals in a way that feels good and comfortable for you. My focus I have wide experience in the mental health field, working with children, adults, and couples. Currently, I mainly treat adults and couples who are navigating various phases and changes in life. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, infidelity, relationship issues, and imposter syndrome. My communication style I prefer a relaxed, comfortable environment in my sessions. I want you to feel like you are meeting up with a close friend while gaining professional support and guidance along the way. My journey to therapy I witnessed the trauma that children can experience at the hands of the system, strangers, and even their own families, which inspired me to get involved and make a difference. Many people experience pain or harm and don't know how to heal. I want to make that healing process a little easier by providing support along their journey. My goals for you I will meet you where you are, and together, we will begin there. My mantra is, ?Wherever You Are, Put Down Roots & Start Growing.? My first session with you During our first session, you can expect me to ask questions and listen closely as you share, so we can decide if we are a good fit. I will provide feedback, encouragement, and praise for taking this important step on your mental health journey.
