About Cary
Cary Truley is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with eight years of clinical experience based in Colorado. He works with people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, LGBT-related concerns, low self-esteem, and motivation. Cary also helps individuals facing parenting stress, grief, addiction concerns, and relationship challenges.
He uses straightforward, structured methods in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the approaches he uses to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) depending on the issue.
In practice, Cary focuses on clear problem solving and practical skills. Sessions include talking through current problems, identifying patterns, and practicing new behaviors between meetings. He attends to attachment, family of origin issues, and common concerns such as body image, commitment, and communication problems.
People who come to him for ADHD, trauma and abuse, or compassion fatigue can expect structured work aimed at managing symptoms and improving daily functioning. He also works with concerns tied to blended family issues, fatherhood, caregiver stress, and coping after disasters.
Therapy begins with a brief assessment of the main concerns and goals. From there he and the client map out a plan that mixes talk, skill practice, and homework. Sessions emphasize clear steps and measurable progress rather than abstract discussion.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying specific thoughts and behaviors that cause distress and then testing alternatives through small experiments and homework. It is useful for anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and managing ADHD-related struggles. ACT emphasizes noticing values and taking action toward them even when uncomfortable feelings appear; it helps people facing life transitions, burnout, or chronic stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, collaborative conversation where the person leads the topics and the therapist follows their concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cary will discuss methods with each person and choose techniques based on goals and what feels most useful. He treats this as a collaborative process and may combine elements from CBT, ACT, and client-centered work depending on the situation.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - shorter check-ins can work during a lunch break, audio-only calls reduce bandwidth needs, and remote sessions remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use these options to focus on practical skills, consistent practice, and progress that fits everyday schedules.
