Candace Lightheart, MSW, LCSW, LCAS       

Founder and Therapist

Candace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS) based in Chapel Hill, NC. She provides compassionate and specialized care for adults 18+ struggling with career stress, trauma, and substance use concerns.

Her therapy approach focuses on solutions and skill-building aimed at helpful behavior change. Her practice also incorporates somatic-informed/body-based practices. She believes that talk therapy alone sometimes has limits in addressing the full impact of our experiences and deeply believes in the healing that takes place when you listen to your body. ​
