About Candice

Candice Cole is a licensed professional counselor in Colorado with more than 10 years of clinical experience. She uses straightforward, person-focused care to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, depression, or big life changes. She often helps people talk through relationship concerns, grief, addiction struggles, sleep and eating issues, and questions about identity and intimacy.

Candice draws from a mix of practical approaches to match each person's needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and change behavior. She applies Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for strong emotions and distress tolerance. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to help people notice values and improve connection.

Her style is direct and compassionate. Sessions focus on realistic steps people can try between meetings. She pays attention to how culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, and ability shape a person's experience and decisions.

Candice has worked with people facing developmental and intellectual disabilities and supports members of LGBTQIA+ communities. She emphasizes respect, cultural humility, and practical problem solving rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.

People come to her for help with anger and coping strategies, managing ADHD symptoms, burnout and compassion fatigue, parenting stress, career shifts, and chronic health challenges. She aims to build tools that fit a person's everyday life and goals.

How her approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are strong. It is useful for anxiety, anger, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns that lead to unhelpful behavior and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce distress. This approach is common for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance through mindfulness and behavior techniques.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Candice collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in as therapy progresses and adjusts techniques based on what is helping and what feels realistic for day-to-day life.

Confirm the current online session options before booking to know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare, or medical needs. It can allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, reduce travel time, and let people practice skills in their everyday settings. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively with clients who are ready to work remotely, and the therapist will help tailor sessions to practical needs and goals.
