The decision to start therapy is a courageous one. I create an open and safe environment for you to embark on your therapeutic journey. In my practice I take a strength-based approach to help you learn and grow. I am interested in exploring who you are as an individual and helping you get where you want to be. Together I hope to build a respectful and collaborative therapeutic alliance.
For 18 years, I have worked alongside children and adults navigating some of life's hardest
moments: anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, and more. I believe that when you
invest in your mental health, you gain more control over your own life, and that is something
worth working toward together. I am dually licensed in both North Carolina and South
Carolina, which means I bring a depth of clinical experience across many settings. Using a
blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy, I meet you where
you are and help you build toward where you want to be.
Hey there! I'm Candace Ferguson, LPC-S, founder of Willow Haven Counseling LLC. I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wilmington University in 2017 and have since obtained my Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) credentials.
I work with adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma, self-esteem concerns, stress, and grief.
I help people navigate life’s challenges by focusing on what truly matters to them. I use an approach that encourages embracing your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them. Together, we’ll explore how to live in a way that’s more aligned with your values, even in the face of stress, anxiety, or difficult emotions. My goal is to support you in creating a life that feels meaningful and true to who you really are, not defined by your struggles but by your choices and actions.
My background is in all aspects of mental health and substance abuse.
