About Candice

Candice Catoire is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Washington with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and transitions in life.

Background and approach

Additional areas of attention include body image, chronic pain and illness, life purpose, obsessive-compulsive concerns, panic attacks, perinatal mood changes, seasonal mood shifts, self-love, and issues affecting women and young adults. Candice draws from collaborative, client-centered strategies to tailor conversations and treatment plans to each person’s distinct needs.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques with motivational interviewing and narrative- and solution-focused methods to support practical change, explore personal stories, and boost motivation. She also offers faith-informed counseling when specifically requested by a client who wants that option.

Clients can expect a respectful, sensitive tone that prioritizes compassion and individualized pacing. Candice aims to create a space for people to clarify goals, develop coping skills, and build confidence while navigating life’s challenges.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and adapting to each person’s unique perspective, creating space for clients to lead conversations about what matters most while the therapist reflects and supports growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing skills to change patterns, which can be especially helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Motivational interviewing helps people explore ambivalence and strengthen their own reasons for change, useful when motivation or life transitions are a central challenge.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and the therapist will collaborate with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans and techniques are adjusted over time so therapy remains aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy schedules, revisit material between meetings, and use a mix of real-time and written communication to support learning and progress.
