About Brannon

Dr. Brannon Pruet draws on extensive clinical experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and a wide range of other concerns.

Background and approach

He works with issues such as self-esteem, eating concerns, bipolar mood instability, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes, and also addresses related themes like attachment challenges, abandonment, codependency, body image, and substance use. His practice emphasizes practical strategies alongside deeper exploration of meaning and values.

Dr. Pruet brings three years of licensure experience as an LPC in Colorado and a long career in mental health settings, including inpatient psychiatric care, crisis assessment in emergency rooms, and leadership roles in clinical programs.

He integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and existential perspectives to tailor support to each person’s needs. His work is informed by a doctoral degree in psychology, graduate counseling training, and many years serving community mental health and hospital settings.

He aims to partner with clients to identify workable goals and to build skills that fit their life circumstances.

Integrating evidence-based approaches into online therapy



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns by teaching practical coping skills and stepwise behavior change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying personal values and learning to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to meaningful actions, which can be helpful for coping with chronic worries, avoidance, or life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration, creating a space where the clients own goals and insights guide the process.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to explore which methods feel most useful, adjusting techniques over time based on goals, preferences, and progress so that interventions fit the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to engage in care from varied locations and schedules. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of support, practice skills between sessions, and choose the communication style that best matches daily life and accessibility needs.
