About Cary
Cary Truley is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. He aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can talk through immediate problems and plan for change. Cary works from Colorado and brings eight years of counseling experience to his work.
He uses simple, evidence-informed approaches to help clients build skills they can use day to day.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what is getting in the way now and on small, realistic steps clients can take between meetings. Cary adapts his pacing and language to match each person's needs rather than following a fixed script. Cary blends acceptance and commitment techniques with client-centered listening and cognitive-behavioral tools.
That mix helps people notice thoughts and feelings, choose meaningful values, and try new behaviors that fit their goals. Dialectical behavior and emotionally-focused ideas are also available when emotion regulation or relationship patterns are central concerns. He has experience addressing a wide range of concerns including LGBT issues, addiction, parenting stress, grief, trauma, career questions, ADHD, and attachment or family-of-origin struggles.
Cary also supports people dealing with anger and communication problems, helping them find safer ways to get needs met. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Cary commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of his online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different behaviors to reduce distress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past, then adapt methods together. That collaborative planning helps match techniques to the client's needs rather than fitting the person to a single method.
Online sessions can be more flexible for many people. Video calls let the therapist and client use face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and role play. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing coaching, quick check-ins, or tracking homework between sessions. These options make it easier to fit regular work into a busy life and to practice new skills in real time.
