Are you longing for a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported? When anxiety, PTSD, depression, life transitions, etc. begin to weigh heavily, it can feel difficult to move forward. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where healing and hope can begin to take root.
I am a graduate of the University of Alabama’s Master’s program in Rehabilitation Counseling, with a focus on recovery, and I bring additional experience from working in foster care and educational settings. This background informs my trauma-aware, person-centered approach.
Therapy is often a first step to discovering answers to questions we have about ourselves by providing us the safe space we need to share, gain insight through an objective and non-judgmental perspective, and make drastic changes for the better so I encourage and commend you in taking this step! My name is Candace and I've been working as a mental health professional since 2018 and I have worked with children (ages 8 & up), teens, and adults experiencing various struggles such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and trauma. In recent years my practice has been largely focused on women's issues and processing trauma.
I enjoy working with individuals and families as well as children and adolescents. I collaborate with clients to identify their strengths and the areas where they wish to grow or change. I offer a safe and supportive environment for clients to process their emotions and be seen, heard, and validated. Ultimately, I strive to empower and challenge clients to create meaningful change and live wholehearted lives.

I am a family-oriented individual who understands the importance of balanced living, self-care, and healthy relationships. My formal education as a master's-level social worker, personal trials and errors, and 20-plus years of work experience with youth, individuals, and families have taught me that we are all unique human beings with our own life experiences with a shared desire for happiness. The difference in levels of individual and family satisfaction is often attributed to intentional effort to establish and maintain healthy relationships, mindsets, and perspectives. The goal of my practice is to empower hope, healing, & healthy relationships!
Hello! I am a LCSW specializing in therapy for ADHD & anxiety. I spent the first eight years of my career in diverse and challenging social work roles in a community mental health setting. I have been working as a therapist for the past five years, first as a general practitioner and later as an ADHD specialist within my own practice.
Something happened, and even if life has moved on around you, part of you is still carrying it. I work with people navigating trauma, loss, anxiety, and the kind of identity questions that don't have easy answers — the ones that come up when you're trying to figure out who you are after something has shifted. My practice is built for people who are ready to stop managing and start actually healing.
I’m a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 30 years of nursing experience, including ED psychiatric crisis care and extensive work with geriatric patients with dementia and their families. I provide behavioral health evaluation, crisis-focused intervention, emotional regulation support, and structured therapeutic exercises for children, teens, adults, and caregivers. My focus includes anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, insomnia, emotional eating, and behavioral patterns affecting weight and functioning.
I do not provide medication management, but I refer patients to prescribing providers and offer clinical recommendations to support continuity of care. My approach centers on assessment, stabilization, and practical behavioral strategies that patients continue at home to reinforce healing.
Thank you, Shannon Lewis, PMHNP-BC, DNP
