About Candice

Candice Yeargin offers a straightforward, person-centered style that puts the client in charge of goals and progress. She is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - based in Illinois with two decades of experience. Candice aims to make starting therapy less intimidating and to build a working relationship based on honesty and respect.

She focuses on practical steps people can use to handle stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, and trauma.

Background and approach

Sessions also address relationship strain, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes. Additional areas include adoption and foster care, aging concerns, caregiver stress, substance issues, and family of origin problems. Candice combines attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered listening.

She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools to help people find short-term, achievable changes. The work is collaborative - the client sets priorities and Candice helps map out realistic steps. Her background includes a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and a master’s in education with a focus on community counseling.

She has been practicing since receiving her license in 1999, which adds up to about 20 years of clinical experience. That mix of education and practice informs how she structures sessions and treatment plans. Candice keeps sessions practical and direct, while remaining compassionate and nonjudgmental.

She likes to tackle difficult topics when needed, and she helps clients carry those steps forward between meetings. Outside of work she enjoys reading and golf and spends time with two fur pets.

Online support

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how past and present relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions let clients talk through relational patterns and practice new ways of connecting with others in real time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and builds specific skills to change them. In remote sessions clients learn practical exercises and homework tasks they can use between meetings to track progress and shift patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review goals, current struggles, and preferences together and recommend a blend of methods that fits the client's needs. That plan can change over time as progress is made or priorities shift, and the relationship remains collaborative throughout.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - provide flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation and nonverbal feedback. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick updates, brief coping strategies, or ongoing support between longer sessions.
