About Justin
Dr. Justin Cole welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family tension, parenting challenges, or intimacy concerns. He writes plainly and listens closely to help people name what matters most.
Many come because they want steadier connections and clearer ways to handle hard moments. He brings 25 years of social work experience and holds the credentials LCSW and CSW. His background includes work in structured settings where practical problem solving and steady support were required.
Background and approach
He aims to make therapy a place to try new reactions, practice communication, and repair trust. In sessions Dr. Cole uses approaches that focus on attachment, acceptance, and skill building.
That means looking at how early bonds shape current patterns, learning to accept difficult feelings without being overwhelmed, and developing tools for everyday stress. He uses clear exercises, reflective conversations, and homework tailored to each person. People often leave sessions with a short list of concrete next steps.
Dr. Cole helps set small, attainable goals and checks progress from week to week. He also addresses related concerns like abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and caregiver stress when those issues come up.
He practices in Colorado and works in English. Starting therapy is a process he treats as collaborative, with an emphasis on practical change and rebuilding safer connections in daily life.

Online support
Attachment work and practical skills online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and emotional reactions; it helps people understand patterns that keep repeating in their close connections. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them and to take actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood and problem solving.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Cole treats the choice of methods as collaborative and adjusts the plan based on a person's goals, comfort level, and progress. He often combines attachment insight with acceptance and skills training so the tools fit real life situations.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when deeper interaction is wanted. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, homework review, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent alongside busy schedules.
