About Kandace
Kandace Perryman is an LCMHC - Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina with 17 years of experience. She focuses on parenting, family concerns, relationship stress, anxiety, trauma and grief. Kandace also helps people facing depression, anger, self-esteem struggles, and life changes such as divorce or blended family transitions.
She approaches sessions simply. She listens first, then works with each person to find practical ways forward. She uses methods that suit the person's style, including talk-based and skills-focused work. Sessions often involve clarifying problems, practicing new responses, and checking what actually helps day to day.
Kandace draws on several clinical approaches to guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and shift behavior. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and Imago Relationship Therapy inform how she addresses relationship and attachment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the process grounded in the client’s experience.
Her additional focus includes adoption and foster care issues, attachment challenges, postpartum concerns, and support for caregivers. She also addresses practical stressors like money problems and workplace pressures that affect home life.
Kandace aims to help people regain clearer perspective after overwhelm. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide the pace and tools used. To begin, she asks about current struggles and what the client hopes will change.
How sessions work
How Kandace brings therapeutic methods to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the client’s concerns. It aims to make the conversation feel straightforward and respectful, helping people notice what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors. It teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work through strong emotions and attachment needs in relationships.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, try approaches that fit the concern, and adjust the plan as they learn what helps. Kandace uses the methods above to tailor sessions around the person’s day-to-day life and goals.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not specify them. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy routine easier. It can allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and let sessions happen during breaks or from convenient locations. Discussing scheduling and session length at the first meeting helps match the practical details to the client’s needs and daily responsibilities.
