Candis Cochran, LPC

Candis Cochran is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee who offers warm, practical support to individuals, couples, and families. With three years of clinical experience and work in residential settings, partial care programs, and church-based services, she concentrates on concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, codependency, couples counseling, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, ADHD, and related issues. Her commitment to this work grew from personal exposure to mental health struggles while growing up, which informs a compassionate understanding of how stigma, isolation, and the process of seeking help can feel overwhelming.

Candis uses a person-centered and multicultural approach that starts where each client is and adapts to their cultural identities and life circumstances. She primarily employs evidence-based techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies, integrating motivational interviewing and other tools when appropriate. Her style is described as warm and supportive, oriented toward teamwork with clients to set concrete goals, celebrate incremental progress, and build practical coping skills. She offers therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual’s experience, creating a supportive space where the person is heard and respected. It helps people who need acceptance and guidance while they explore their values, emotions, and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, skills-oriented approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and panic. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and simple mental practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation; it is often helpful for stress, rumination, and coping with difficult feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Candis collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps tailor a clear plan with achievable steps.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend regularly, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from a licensed professional without travel constraints.
