Candice Crawford

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 25 mi away • The Bronx, NY


It's very difficult to be in stressful situations that can cause lots of anxiety and self-doubt. Perhaps you're looking for something more than advice from family and friends. If you're looking for a warm and inviting counseling atmosphere, I am eager to work with you to develop effective coping skills and a greater self-awareness to reach your full potential. Together, you and I can work to set goals that are appropriate and attainable for you, at your pace. For therapy to be effective for you, I work hard to build genuine and long lasting trust.


I have experience working with clients who have suffered from anxiety, depression, and marital issues. Additionally, I believe that cultural factors are critical to the way we navigate through life. I work hard to address cultural matters, to understand how these may impact our perception of the world.


Call me for a free consultation where we can discuss your needs and goals. For your convenience, I offer online counseling. También, ofrezco servicios en español. Llamame para discutir tus metas.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wantagh

Finding a therapist in Wantagh starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Providers in Nassau County and across Long Island specialize in a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, and life transitions. Some focus on specific approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), while others offer couples counseling or family therapy. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match.

Therapy on Long Island can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider in Wantagh who fits your needs and your budget.

Whether you prefer in-person sessions near Wantagh or virtual appointments from home, Headway connects you with licensed providers — including therapists (LCSW, LMHC, LMFT) and psychiatrists — who are accepting new patients. You can review detailed bios, check real-time availability, and book directly.
