About Candice

Candice Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 10 years of clinical experience. She sees adults who bring concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, and questions about identity and intimacy. Sessions address practical challenges like sleep, eating, parenting strain, and career stress.

Candice relies on straightforward, person-centered conversation. She listens to how family roles and early relationships affect current patterns. She then suggests concrete skills from approaches such as cognitive behavioral work and dialectical behavior strategies to help manage difficult emotions and reactions.

Her work also focuses on attachment and how early relational experiences shape expectations in adult relationships. That includes attention to abandonment concerns, blended family dynamics, and issues tied to adoption and foster care when they arise. She pays attention to how sexual identity and kink culture interact with intimacy and relationship needs.

Candice has experience supporting people with chronic health concerns, caregiving stress, ADHD, and co-occurring substance or behavioral addictions. She uses short-term coaching techniques alongside therapy when appropriate to address coping skills and life transitions.

People who prefer direct, practical sessions find her approach useful. She outlines steps, practices new ways of responding, and checks progress over time. To begin, readers should review online therapy options and complete the brief matching questionnaire to schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how those shape current connections; it helps when family of origin issues affect intimacy and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns that increase distress and practicing different responses, which can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and checking in about what is helpful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow a shorter check-in when needed, or remove the need to travel to an office. Therapists can use session time to teach DBT skills, practice CBT exercises, or review ACT-based exercises in ways that fit someone’s schedule and daily life.
