Candice Cole , LPC

Candice Cole is a licensed professional counselor in Colorado with more than 10 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She brings a blend of therapeutic methods to her work, drawing on person-centered principles alongside cognitive-behavioral and dialectical-behavioral strategies, solution-focused techniques, strength-based perspectives, women’s assertiveness training, and feminist theory to meet each person where they are.

Her practice emphasizes work with individuals who have developmental and intellectual disabilities, older adults, and members of LGBTQIA+ and other marginalized communities. Candice attends closely to the many factors that shape identity and experience - including ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion and spirituality, pronouns, and ability - and she strives to honor those aspects in the therapeutic relationship.

As an advocate for wellbeing, Candice supports clients in identifying and overcoming barriers, building resilience, and moving toward practical, meaningful goals. She approaches therapy with cultural humility, awareness, and a commitment to inclusivity, tailoring her guidance to each person’s unique journey. Candice holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, indicating professional training and state licensure in counseling.

Evidence-informed approaches in online therapy

Candice uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where each person’s priorities and strengths guide the work. This approach focuses on empathy, respect, and collaboration to help clients clarify goals and build self-directed change.

She also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions aligned with their personal values. ACT is useful for managing stress, anxiety, and life transitions by emphasizing meaningful behavior over trying to control inner experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Candice works collaboratively with clients to identify strategies that best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals often combine techniques to suit individual situations, and Candice will discuss options and tailor interventions together with each client.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to access consistent support while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities. These formats can increase convenience and help clients engage in therapy in ways that fit their daily lives.
