We built the intensive for the weekend.
We built this page for the rest of the journey.
Every couple that walks into a REFLECT/REFRESH intensive brings a history. Some of that history surfaces over two days and finds resolution. Some of it surfaces and reminds you that there is more work to do — work that benefits from a trained guide walking alongside you week after week.
That is not failure. That is wisdom. Recognizing when you need support is one of the most courageous things a married couple can do.
Candi Crawford is that counselor. Through Mend Counseling in Vicksburg, Mississippi, she offers licensed professional counseling to individuals and couples who are ready to go further than the intensive could take them.
PhD Candidate, Colorado Christian University
Candi is a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor with over fifteen years of experience working with individuals and couples. Her clinical specialties include marriage and relational counseling, trauma, communication, and emotional safety. She is EMDR trained and operates from a person-centered, trauma-informed foundation rooted in Christian faith.
As co-creator of REFLECT/REFRESH, Candi brings the same warmth, clinical depth, and pastoral sensitivity to her counseling practice that she brings to every intensive. She creates environments where couples feel seen, heard, and safe enough to do the real work.
