About Candace

Candace Delis is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor with six years of clinical experience. She is based in Wisconsin and works with adults on a range of concerns including anger, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and stress. Candace describes herself as approachable and relatable, and she draws on practical skills in sessions rather than labels.

She has a Master of Arts in Community Counseling and a Bachelor of Science in Sociology. Her background includes crisis intervention and group therapy settings. That experience informs short-term coping strategies and grounded ways to manage strong emotions.

Sessions are interactive and goal-minded. Candace combines client-centered conversation with cognitive-behavioral techniques and solution-focused work. She uses mindfulness tools to help with emotional regulation and sleep issues when useful.

Candace often helps people who are dealing with grief, bipolar mood patterns, addiction concerns, intimacy and sexual-variant topics such as BDSM and kink, and caregiver stress. She also supports work on communication, codependency, commitment worries, and navigating blended family concerns.

Her approach is practical: identify small changes, practice new responses, and check what works in everyday life. She emphasizes respect and sensitivity and avoids reducing someone to a diagnosis. Candace blends straightforward discussion with skill practice so clients leave sessions with concrete steps to try.

Outside of work she lives in a busy household with her spouse, an older stepson, rescue dogs, adopted cats, and some backyard animals. That down-to-earth outlook informs how she talks about coping with daily pressures and relationship strain.

How her approaches translate to online work

Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes. It can help with anger, anxiety, sleep problems, and depressive patterns by teaching practical skills and homework to practice between sessions.

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and collaborative conversation. The therapist follows the person's concerns, reflects what she hears, and helps people feel understood while they try new ways of handling stress and relationships.

Mindfulness therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. These tools can be short exercises used during sessions and practiced afterward to help with strong feelings and sleep issues.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Candace will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and review progress as sessions continue.

If you plan to meet online, confirm current session formats when booking since format options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during breaks, or let someone use audio-only if bandwidth is limited. These practical benefits often help people keep consistent appointments and apply skills in real life.
