Candis Lavallais

Candis Lavallais

Therapist

Virtual • Indiana


I am a licensed clinical therapist with a passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion.

Throughout my career, I have worked with adults, adolescents, couples, families, young professionals, and parents, helping them navigate concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress management, self-esteem, and burnout. I also have experience supporting individuals facing grief and loss, marital concerns, career transitions, postpartum adjustment, and chronic illnesses.

I believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in both insight and practical tools for change. I value authenticity in the therapeutic relationship and believe meaningful progress happens when clients feel truly seen and understood.

Above all, I view therapy as a partnership. My role is to bring clinical expertise, curiosity, and care—while honoring you as the expert of your own lived experience.

Debbie Phillips

Debbie Phillips

Therapist

Virtual • Indiana


I've spent over a decade working with people who are fighting battles most people don't talk about — addiction, eating disorders, dual diagnosis, and the anxiety and depression that come along for the ride. I'm not here to give you a five-step plan. I'm here to be the person who genuinely gives a damn about what you're carrying. I've learned a lot from the great therapists, yoga teachers, and people in recovery who shaped my own life — and my whole purpose is giving that back. I also teach yoga, which means I don't just talk about mindfulness — I live it. Morning, evening, and weekend slots available. Aetna, Anthem, Cigna, and Carelon accepted.

When emotional challenges begin affecting your relationships, confidence, or daily life, it can be difficult to know where to start. You may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, or the impact of difficult experiences. For children and adolescents, these struggles may show up through behavioral changes, emotional outbursts, school difficulties, or challenges connecting with others. Therapy offers a supportive space to better understand what is happening beneath the surface and begin creating meaningful change.
