About Candace
Candace Harren is a Minnesota LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and compassion fatigue. She also pays attention to issues such as adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, cancer-related concerns, life purpose, and isolation.
Candace uses a straightforward, person-focused approach in sessions. She listens first, then helps people name practical goals. Sessions often focus on steps that reduce overwhelm and clarify what matters next. Solution-Focused Therapy guides short-term, actionable goal setting, while Client-Centered Therapy shapes how conversations are held.
People come to her when life changes leave them unsure what to do next - after a breakup, a health scare, a career shift, or when caregiving responsibilities pile up. She works to identify realistic next steps and to break larger problems into manageable tasks. That usually means setting small goals and checking progress together.
Her background includes long-term work with adults affected by mood struggles, addiction, personality-related concerns, and end-of-life or hospice situations. She has experience addressing guilt, shame, social anxiety, and Seasonal Affective Disorder. That range informs a practical style that focuses on solvable problems and clear coping strategies.
Candace accepts clients in English and is open to international clients. Before scheduling, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then pick a first session time. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
