Candice Corrao

Candice Corrao is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker providing therapy in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts. She is committed to maintaining an inclusive, sex positive practice for older teens and adults. Many of her clients struggle with emotional balance, cognitive flexibility, sexuality, sexual health concerns, anxiety, depression, life issues and dissatisfaction with quality of life.

Candice’s clients are ready to take an active role in their well-being and mental health and are curious how sexual health effects the two. Her therapeutic style is rooted in the idea that emotions are telling us something important. Drawing on her knowledge of evidence-based approaches like Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and the PLISSIT model for sexual health, Candice helps her clients sort through the confusing emotions so they can be more engaged and content with life.

Candice believes the most important part of the therapeutic process is the relationship between client and therapist. She creates an environment where clients feel safe, respected, and accepted so they can bring their authentic selves to therapy. Clients can expect benefits including symptom reduction, increased self-knowledge, skill building, identifying and changing negative thought patterns, and progress towards emotional balance and psychological flexibility.

Candice threads her yoga and integrative medicine for mental health training through therapy, highlighting the body mind connection. She offers both in-person and online therapy options.
