About Justin

Dr. Justin Cole is a licensed social worker in Colorado who brings a background as a former Army Social Work Officer to his clinical practice. He holds LCSW and CSW credentials, which indicate advanced training and state licensure in social work. He focuses on supporting adults coping with PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship strains, family conflicts, and intimacy-related concerns.

Dr. Cole emphasizes a collaborative, respectful approach that helps people explore difficult thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. He works with individuals and families to identify patterns that contribute to stress and to develop practical strategies for improving communication, managing symptoms, and rebuilding connection. His experience includes addressing both situational challenges and longer-standing relational difficulties.

Beginning therapy can be a significant step, and Dr. Cole aims to make that process approachable and affirming. He acknowledges the courage it takes to ask for help and strives to create an environment where progress is built through partnership, clear goals, and steady support.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that align with their values - useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in close relationships to improve trust, communication, and intimacy, making it a strong fit for relationship and family concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and to build practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Dr. Cole collaborates with each person to tailor strategies to their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they assess what methods feel most helpful and adjust over time to support steady progress.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with licensed professionals - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so people can receive consistent care without rearranging their whole schedule. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, maintain momentum between meetings, and fit therapy into daily life while working with therapists who can adapt approaches to the online setting.
