About Michael
Michael Capre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with nine years of clinical experience. He works with adults and adolescents on problems such as depression, anxiety, mood and personality symptoms, and the stress that comes with life changes and parenting.
He uses Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Psychodynamic, and Existential approaches. Sessions focus on identifying values, building insight, and practical steps that make daily life easier. He aims to help people reduce symptoms that get in the way of relationships and routine responsibilities.
Michael has provided care in outpatient, residential, and inpatient settings. That range of experience shapes how he notices patterns and suggests concrete strategies for coping. He often combines short-term behavioral work with deeper exploration of personal meaning and past influences.
People who come to him for parenting concerns, relationship strain, or grief can expect direct, plainspoken work. Conversations include problem solving, emotion regulation skills, and attention to how past attachments affect current behavior. He also addresses issues such as codependency, control struggles, and commitment worries.
When anxiety, anger, or low self-esteem are affecting daily routines or parenting, he helps clients name the problem and test small changes. He also supports those dealing with trauma, bipolar mood swings, or compassion fatigue by balancing practical coping with reflection about life purpose and values.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping the client clarify what matters to them. This approach supports people who need space to name values and make decisions without pressure.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and practical problems that affect parenting and daily routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods together to see what fits. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions lean more toward skill-based CBT, reflective psychodynamic work, or existential questions about meaning.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Ask which online options are available when you sign up. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when schedule demands are high, and avoid travel time so sessions fit around parenting, work, or caregiving responsibilities.
