Cary Truley

Cary Truley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who uses mindfulness as a key part of therapy. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and issues related to LGBT identity. He also supports people working on self-esteem, motivation, and confidence. With eight years of clinical experience, Cary adapts conversation and care to each person’s needs. He works collaboratively to build a plan that fits what someone wants to change. Sessions emphasize practical skills and awareness that can be used between visits. Cary draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered listening. He brings these methods together to help people notice patterns, try new behaviors, and stay connected to their values. Dialectical skills are used when someone needs tools for emotion regulation. He also addresses a wide range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including grief, addiction, parenting strain, career issues, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and blended family issues. People can expect respectful, direct conversation and a practical focus on small, achievable changes. Cary encourages people to try techniques in daily life and to reflect on what helps. He aims to support steady progress toward clearer goals and better coping.

How mindfulness and ACT translate to online work

Mindfulness Therapy helps people learn simple awareness exercises to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them; this can reduce reactivity and help with anxiety or stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and taking small committed steps toward those values, which can help with depression, motivation, or life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on being heard and understood so a person can find their own path through challenges. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cary will work together with each person to figure out which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning includes trying techniques and adjusting them based on what helps in daily life. If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Many people appreciate how online work can fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or make it easier to practice skills between sessions. These practical benefits help therapy feel more usable day to day, and Cary will discuss how to fold therapeutic exercises into a client's routine during initial planning.
