About Candace:

Candace was born and raised in Southern California but has seen a lot of the world as a member of the United States Air Force. While in the military, Candace traveled over the United States and United Kingdom, met the person she would marry, had five children, and was inspired to pursue a career working with kids and families.

She earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California in 2014, with a major in mental health and a minor in military lifestyle. She is a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Utah with experience working with kids and adults individually, in pairs, and in groups. She is trained in treating trauma, substance abuse, anxiety, depression, attachment disorders, complicated grief, OCD, bi-polar, personality disorders, neurological development deficits/delays, parenting skills, body image, and more.

Having grown up in a blended family and traveled all over the world as an adult, Candace appreciates the unique experiences each individual brings to their own care. With that in mind, Candace strives to create space for each client to feel safe and supported, regardless of religious, ethnic, cultural, sexual, or gender orientation.

Parent Feedback

We transferred to Families First about 6 years ago when our long time & only pediatrician moved out of state. I had worked with her in a large pediatric office before having children and am probably a bit particular about who I trust with my children’s health care. I have been so impressed with each office and provider we have dealt with at Families First. Especially Mitch Petersen, our primary pediatrician for all 6 of my kids. He’s awesome, my kids love him and he’s great at teaching & explaining and making everyone comfortable. Love all their services, including the newish counseling office. Valerie has been so helpful with one of my children. Loved that my 5 year old could get her ears pierced at one of the offices too.
