About Candice
Candice Cole is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with more than 10 years of experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life changes. Candice works with individuals who face a wide range of challenges, including ADHD, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues related to identity and sexuality.
Her approach blends methods that match practical needs. She uses client-centered listening alongside cognitive strategies and skills-building. Dialectical behavior ideas are used when emotion regulation and strong reactions make daily life harder. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas support values-based choices and committed action.
Candice emphasizes respect for identity and life context. She acknowledges how race, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, ability, and preferred pronouns shape people’s experiences. That perspective guides how she talks through goals and priorities with each person.
Day-to-day, sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings. That might include simple behavior experiments, grounding skills for anxiety, or small values-driven goals. She also helps people address practical stressors like caregiving strain, career shifts, chronic illness, adoption and foster care concerns, or substance use patterns.
Her practice aims to be collaborative and flexible. Candice helps people set realistic goals and develop tools they can use after therapy ends. Prospective clients who want to begin can complete the intake steps on the site and schedule according to availability.

Step 3
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to small actions that match their values. It can be useful for depression, anxiety, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors through straightforward exercises and experiments between sessions. It often helps with anxiety, mood, and problem-solving. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and can help when people repeat the same relational patterns or struggle with trust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose methods and adjust them over time so sessions stay practical and relevant.
Confirm the session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed on the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow quick check-ins when a brief conversation will help. It also makes it simpler to continue work during moves or schedule changes. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused tools to work well in remote sessions, using homework, short skills practice, and planning between meetings to keep progress moving.
