About Candice

Candice Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and a wide range of life changes. Her practice also notes work with addiction, ADHD, grief, intimacy-related issues, and blended family issues among other focus areas.

Candice draws on several therapy approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive-behavioral ideas are used when people want concrete steps to change thoughts and habits that feed anxiety or depression.

She incorporates acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck in them. Attachment-based perspectives inform work on loyalty conflicts, abandonment concerns, and relationship patterns that show up in blended households. Dialectical behavior ideas are brought in for managing strong emotions and improving coping skills.

Candice emphasizes clear, practical conversation. Sessions tend to focus on current problems, skill-building, and small experiments people can try between meetings. She pays attention to identity and culture and how those factors shape relationships and stressors in daily life.

Clients can expect straightforward feedback, collaborative goal-setting, and a focus on what changes will make day-to-day life easier. To begin, the site asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It can help when anxiety, depression, or difficult family feelings get in the way of daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect trust and loyalty. This perspective can be useful for people navigating stepfamily roles and abandonment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT techniques often help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will review goals and try methods that fit the client's needs and preferences. If something isn’t helpful, they adjust the plan and try different techniques until it feels more useful.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel, and make it easier to keep appointments during work breaks or parenting responsibilities. Some formats also let people have shorter check-ins or avoid being on camera when that suits them better. Discuss format preferences when you schedule the first session so practical arrangements match daily life.
