Candice - Danville, KY

“I take a gentle, non-judgmental approach to develop an authentic relationship and to ensure clients feel comfortable and respected while exploring emotions and concerns. My main goal is for children and families to feel safe, comfortable, and supported when they enter my space.” - Candice Charles, CSW
