About Candice

Candice Bruce is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with six years of professional experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship concerns, plus life adjustments and family-related struggles. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings.

She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address how feelings, thoughts, and interactions affect daily life. In session she helps clients notice patterns that keep problems going and then try different ways of responding. That often means naming hard emotions, practicing new ways to speak about needs, and testing small behavior changes.

Her approach includes mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing when helpful. These methods are used to increase awareness, build momentum for change, and support clearer decision making. Clients are encouraged to identify strengths they already have and to try concrete tools between sessions.

Candice frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens for what matters most to each person and adjusts how sessions proceed based on goals and progress. She also discusses realistic steps clients can take outside of sessions to support longer term change.

People who choose her tend to be looking for straightforward guidance, practical techniques, and a focus on emotions and relationships. Language offered is English and she accepts international clients.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Candice uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name emotions that shape their relationships and daily choices. EFT work focuses on how feelings connect to interaction patterns and can be useful when someone wants to change how they respond to strong emotions.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions are guided by the client’s priorities and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is employed to identify thought patterns and try small behavior experiments that reduce distress or improve functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust as needed in collaboration with the client. That means discussing which techniques feel useful and changing course when something isn’t helping.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people use practices learned in session in their everyday settings more quickly.
