About Tyler

Tyler Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with ten years of experience. He focuses on concerns like anger, stress, anxiety, grief, parenting strain, and coping with life changes. Tyler helps people who are dealing with addiction, relationship or family challenges, self-esteem struggles, depression, ADHD, and trauma-related issues.

Tyler uses practical, strengths-focused work in sessions. He keeps conversation straightforward and down-to-earth. Sessions center on the goals and values that matter most to each person. He aims to help people move toward the life and relationships they want.

Tyler draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. These methods are used to address trauma, pattern change, motivation for recovery, and to build skills for coping and connection.

Clients meet a clinician who emphasizes collaboration and flexibility. Tyler checks in about what is working and adjusts the plan over time. He focuses on practical steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Tyler holds credentials as LPC and LMHC and practices in Washington. He conducts work in English and does not take international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How these approaches work in online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, purposeful steps toward them. It helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed by strong emotions, or unsure about next steps. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is aimed at processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity; it is often used when trauma or abuse affects daily life. Motivational Interviewing is a practical, conversational method that helps people strengthen motivation for change, especially around addiction or behavior shifts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, past experiences, and preferences. Together they determine which methods fit best and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

The original biography does not list which online or in-person session formats are offered, so confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these therapy methods effectively in remote sessions, while tailoring pacing and exercises to each person's needs.
