About Candice

Candice Cole is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado with a decade of clinical experience guiding people through a wide range of life challenges. She blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a person-centered stance to help clients clarify goals, build skills, and navigate emotional pain.

Her style pairs cognitive and behavioral tools with compassionate listening and a focus on personal values.

Candice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as appropriate to each person’s needs. She aims to create an inclusive space that honors each client’s identity and life story while supporting skill-building, symptom relief, and clearer direction.

Prospective clients in Colorado who prefer English-language care can expect a collaborative approach that balances practical strategies with empathy.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Many of Candice’s methods focus on practical skills and understanding how thoughts, feelings, and relationships shape daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes clarifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility so clients can take meaningful action even alongside difficult emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relational patterns influence emotional responses and connection, supporting work on intimacy-related issues and relationship dynamics.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds to keep treatment relevant and practical.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options allow clients to access care from home or other convenient locations, make scheduling easier, and maintain continuity of support while tailoring the format to what feels most comfortable for the individual.
