A Mind-Body Approach to Mental Wellness

Candace Simonini, LPC, NCSC, NCC

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

My name is Candace Simonini, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) as well as the owner and founder of iTap Therapy Solutions, LLC. I currently live in Delaware with my husband, our two sons, ages 20 and 15, and our sweet (as well as energetic) Maltese puppy, Fred (Click here to learn more about Fred) and am excited to provide counseling services to clients residing in PA, where I’m licensed to practice.

Counseling Background

With nearly 25 years of experience in counseling and a passion for all things counseling related, I’ve spent my career learning as much as I can about how to help others. In the process, I was recognized as the Delaware State School Counselor of the Year in 2015 and earned both the National Certified Counselor (NCC) and National Certified School Counselor (NCSC) credentials through the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) in 2019 and 2024 respectively. Now as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I hope to work with you individually to achieve your goals. Please click here to learn more about my services.

PA Connection

Pennsylvania holds a special place in my heart as this is where my husband and I called “home” for many years. We lived in State College while I completed my graduate degree at IUP and I began my career in school counseling in () while also spending a short time as an outpatient therapist in Lock Haven. Now residing in Delaware, our family’s connection to PA is still very strong, with Steelers, Phillies, Penguins, and sometimes Eagles fans in our house.

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Tapping

In 2017, I was introduced to Energy Psychology and more specifically to Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Tapping- a mind-body approach for managing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain and more. I immediately fell in love with this technique and used it on everything from every day stressors to my own physical pain related to an autoimmune disease diagnosed in childhood. I’ve continued to use this technique for many years personally, and after experiencing the effectiveness of it, wanted to learn how to apply this technique professionally to support mental health. I just completed level 1 training in EFT Tapping through the Association of Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP) and am enrolled in their level 2 training in the fall.

I hope you will join me on my journey with EFT tapping and experience the wellbeing that you deserve. To learn more about EFT click here. To tap along with me, join me at What’s Tappening!? by tapping here.

Meet Fred

Fred, officially “Alfred”, is our 4 month old Maltese puppy. He is originally from Florida and is full of energy. Fred LOVES people- he makes friends wherever he goes, from the TSA staff at the airport in Florida to families on the Delaware Beaches.

Some of Fred’s favorite things include eating everything he can, though leaves and sticks are his favorite. He runs as fast as he can from us when we try to get these items out of his mouth. Fred also loves to have his belly rubbed and will often fall asleep while on his back. Surprisingly, Fred actually likes his baths and enjoys having his paws washed off after being outside.

Lately, Fred has been waking up at 5 a.m. and cannot wait to play with us…we are currently working on this schedule…though his happy tail wagging and face licks make the early mornings worth it…most of the time:-).

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Tapping

Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT Tapping is a mind-body technique that involves using your fingertips to gently tap on meridian points. I often describe it as accupuncture (without the needles!) for your emotions.
