Candice CatoireLMFT

Candice Catoire is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Washington. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue and concerns around pregnancy and childbirth, including postpartum depression. Candice offers Christian-specific counseling when requested by a client who wants that focus.

Candice keeps sessions respectful and down-to-earth. She listens first and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. Her approach is collaborative and straightforward, aiming to build small, manageable steps toward clearer thinking and steadier moods.

Her work draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and motivational interviewing. That means clients can expect time to tell their story, practical tools to shift unhelpful thinking, and encouragement to build motivation and momentum.

Candice also uses narrative and solution-focused approaches when they fit. These methods help people reframe painful experiences and set concrete short-term goals. Sessions often move between understanding emotions and trying specific strategies that can be practiced between meetings.

With five years of professional experience, Candice strives to make therapy feel usable for everyday life. She invites people to take the first step and match their needs to a plan rather than promise a single right answer.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience without judgment. It helps people feel heard and decide their next steps at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can ease anxiety, panic, or depressive patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions may mix listening, practical exercises, and goal-setting so the plan can change as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life. It may allow quicker check-ins, fewer travel demands, and shorter focused sessions when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about which session rhythm and format will work best for everyday routines.
