Candace Parker, MA, LPC-Associate
Mental health is a vital key to overall well-being and living life to its fullest potential. I believe it is often through our struggles that we learn, grow, and find meaning and value in our lives. My approach to counseling is focused on providing clients with a safe, nonjudgmental environment in which they are able to gain insight and find healing.
I value each and every person as an individual, with unique life experiences and individual needs, and work collaboratively with clients to identify and achieve their goals. Because no single approach is right for everyone, I utilize a range of therapeutic modalities including Cognitive-Behavioral, Gestalt, and Acceptance and Commitment-based theories.
In order to accommodate busy schedules, I offer evening/weekend appointments and counseling via Telehealth. I work with a wide variety of clients including adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

I am a licensed professional counselor providing psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults. I have experience working in an intensive outpatient program with children and teenagers with behavioral issues, emotional adjustment, and more complex psychiatric disorders. I have spent many years working with adults dealing with trauma and grief. I use DBT-informed therapy in helping clients through their challenges and empowering them to make positive life changes.

Kimberley Brown, MA, LPC-Associate
Life transitions are transformative and often a source of conflict. While challenging our resilience, perspective, and identity, they may result in feelings of confusion, distress, frustration, and resistance to future change. My goal as a psychotherapist is to help clients successfully navigate difficult life transitions and develop the skills necessary to experience a more vital, rewarding, and meaningful life. I provide a compassionate, collaborative, and holistic approach to treatment, and am primarily trained to administer an evidence-based therapy known as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I am experienced in treating adults and elderly individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, interpersonal conflict, and unhealthy habits. I am also skilled in working with individuals experiencing cognitive and emotional changes due to stroke, brain injury, dementia, epilepsy, and other neurological disorders.
I currently offer free 15-minute phone consultations to provide an opportunity to ask any questions that you may have prior to treatment. At this time, all treatment sessions will be conducted by video using a secure telehealth platform. If you are interested in working with me, please call to schedule a consultation at your earliest convenience.
