Where Empathy Meets Curiosity, and You Meet Yourself Differently

You’re the one others rely on — steady, capable, always five steps ahead.

But beneath it all? It’s racing thoughts, emotional exhaustion, and the quiet pressure to hold it together.

You’ve mastered high-functioning burnout and masking — but not rest.
You’re not broken. You’re tired of performing.

You’re craving a space that sees through the mask, honors your neurodiversity, and helps you reconnect with yourself — with less shame, more compassion, and no fixing.


You’re in the Right Place If…

You’re the deep feeler, the overthinker, the one who keeps it together even when it’s costing you.

You’ve tried setting boundaries, softening the mask, letting others in — and still, something feels off.

You’re not broken. You’ve just been misunderstood.

This is a space where you don’t have to explain everything — and where “never quite fitting” is met with compassion, not shame.

You might be someone who’s spent a lifetime adapting, pushing through, or quietly wondering if it’s always going to feel this hard:

  • A sharp, capable adult who’s tired of chasing perfect and hiding what’s real

  • A “too much” or “not enough” woman trying to take up space unapologetically

  • A body liberation advocate in recovery from “wellness” that never felt like care

  • A cycle-breaker navigating complicated family dynamics

  • A sensitive, neurodivergent thinker who’s exhausted by internal noise and hungry for genuine connection

Hi, I’m Candace,

I’m a licensed therapist (MA, LMHC, she/her) and a fellow traveler in the neurospicy realm.

I work best with adults who are sharp, sensitive, and ready to unpack the habits, roles, and inner critics that no longer serve them.

My therapy style is warm, relational, and collaborative — with a good dash of humor, parts work, and reality checks (the compassionate kind).

I specialize in supporting:

  • Neurodivergent and ADHD-identified adults

  • Survivors of toxic family systems

  • Impostor syndrome, burnout, and the perfectionist pressure to always get it right

  • Body image and fat liberation work

  • Healing from trauma with curiosity, not shame

This is a fat-positive, gender-affirming, anti-diet, anti-perfectionism space — a place for outsiders, deep feelers, queer folks, and anyone who’s tired of shrinking to fit. You don’t have to shrink to heal here.


What I Offer

ADHD, Executive Function, and Burnout

Support for neurodivergent adults navigating overwhelm, time blindness, decision fatigue, and the exhaustion of constantly trying to “keep up.” We’ll build systems that actually fit your brain — and make space for rest.

Anxiety, Overwhelm, and Overthinking

For the ones who live in their heads, anticipate everything, and feel everything. Together we’ll untangle the mental loops and soften the nervous system without silencing what matters.

Body Respect and Fat Liberation

As a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, I support clients in healing from diet culture, weight stigma, and body shame. This is a fat-positive, anti-diet space rooted in body respect and Health at Every Size.

Navigating Identity, Masking, and Self-Worth

Whether you’re late-diagnosed, unmasking, or redefining how you relate to the world, this is space to be seen without performing. Let’s explore who you are when you’re not contorting yourself to fit in.

Breaking Cycles in Family, Culture, and Caregiving

Support for cycle-breakers, parentified kids, and those carrying emotional labor they never agreed to. We’ll unpack old roles and build new boundaries — without the guilt.
