About Candice
Candice Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with ten years of experience. She offers calm, steady support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Candice uses straightforward talk and practical tools so clients can feel clearer and more able to act.
Her work draws on body-focused somatic practices alongside cognitive behavioral strategies. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-informed ideas to help people notice patterns and build new habits.
Background and approach
Sessions balance talking, gentle body awareness, and skills you can try between meetings. Candice aims to create a space that respects identity and difference. She names that race, gender, sexual orientation, faith, and ability shape how people move through the world.
Her approach is respectful and nonjudgmental, and she centers what matters to each person. She supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, grief and loss, career strain, and challenges like ADHD or chronic health issues. Addictions, body-image struggles, and compassion fatigue are also areas she addresses in therapy.
If someone prefers a practical, down-to-earth style, Candice matches strategies to real life. She helps people set small goals, practice new responses, and track what changes. The pace and methods are adjusted to match each person's needs and comfort.
How somatic and acceptance-based approaches work online
Somatic work pays attention to how stress and emotion show up in the body. Online sessions can include simple breathing, posture or grounding practices paired with talking so clients notice physical responses and gentle ways to shift them. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small, meaningful actions. In teletherapy that looks like defining what matters, trying tiny changes between sessions, and using practical exercises to build flexibility.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a client's needs, goals, and comfort level. That may mean trying somatic exercises one week and a cognitive or acceptance-based technique the next, then deciding together what helps most.
Online formats like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make therapy more flexible. They let people fit sessions around work, caregiving, and mobility limits. These options also allow follow-up check-ins and skill practice in between meetings, which helps bring therapeutic work into everyday life.
