Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who is Candice, and what are her qualifications?


    Candice is the founder and lead practitioner at Green Vine Psychiatry & Wellness. She is a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, a member of the International OCD Foundation, and provides psychiatric evaluation, diagnosis, and medication management for adults in Texas through in-person and telehealth care.

  • What is your approach to psychiatric care?


    My approach is thorough, direct, and whole-person. I spend meaningful time with patients, look beyond surface symptoms, and consider factors like sleep, stress, trauma, medical history, and when appropriate, lab findings, so treatment is thoughtful, individualized, and not just a quick prescription.

  • What conditions do you treat?
    I work with adults experiencing anxiety, OCD, depression, treatment-resistant depression, trauma-related symptoms, insomnia, and substance use concerns, including complex cases where previous treatment has not fully helped.

    Do you treat ADHD?
    No. I do not treat ADHD at this time.

  • Do you offer in-person and telehealth appointments, and where are you located?


    Yes. I offer in-person appointments in the Austin area and telehealth appointments for adults across Texas.

  • What insurance do you accept, and can you verify my benefits?


    I accept many major commercial plans, including:

    Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, Anthem Blue Cross,
    Blue Shield of California,
    Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts,
    Ascension SmartHealth.

    UnitedHealthcare credentialing is still pending.

    Your benefits can be verified at no cost through Headway or directly by me.

  • How do I get started?


    You can book online through the patient portal. If you have questions about fit, insurance, or whether in-person or telehealth is the better option, we can help with that before you schedule.
