Providing Compassionate Support for Career Stress, Trauma, & Substance Use Concerns
Candace Lightheart, MSW, LCSW, LCAS, CSI
Pronouns: She/Her
Hello. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS) based in Chapel Hill, NC. I provide compassionate and specialized care for adults 18+ struggling with career stress, trauma, and substance use concerns.
​
My therapy approach focuses on solutions and skill-building. We'll deeply explore the issues you're facing and take concrete steps towards positive transformation. I also incorporate somatic-informed practices into my approach, as I believe that talk therapy alone sometimes has limits in addressing the full impact of our experiences and helping you find deeper healing.​Click here to learn more about my therapeutic approach.​​​
Ready to explore how therapy can support you? Please contact me here with questions, or to schedule a 20-minute complimentary consultation to see if I can meet your therapy needs.
