Mrs Candice Burch

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

“Hello all! I am passionate about helping teens, pre-teens, and adults lessen the frequency and duration of anxiety symptoms so, they can live a happy, calm, and thriving life.”

About Me

I am passionate about helping teens, pre-teens, and adults lessen anxiety’s impact, fostering calm and thriving lives. We can work together to understand your unique experience of anxiety, aiming to reduce both its frequency and duration. Through supportive sessions, including EMDR therapy, I guide you towards greater inner peace. This focused approach is ideal for those ready to navigate challenges with more confidence and joy.

Approach

To ease anxiety’s hold, I blend short, focused skill practice with gentle processing so you feel steadier between sessions. Whether we meet in Sarasota or online in English, sessions move at your pace — check-ins, guided grounding, and targeted bilateral work when you’re ready. I encourage small experiments between meetings, tracking what reduces intensity and shortens episodes, then building on what works. This way of working tends to fit teens and adults who want practical calm and growing confidence in daily life.
