About Michael
Michael Capre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with nine years of clinical experience. He helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and related concerns, and notes a focus on adolescents and adults with mood or personality symptoms. He also lists work with relationship and intimacy-related issues and LGBT concerns.
He draws on straightforward conversation and reflection to help people identify values and gain clearer personal insight. Sessions often include looking at patterns of thought and behavior and talking about how past relationships shape current choices. He combines client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic approaches, and uses existential ideas when people are wrestling with meaning or big life changes.
Michael has worked in outpatient, residential, and inpatient settings, so he is familiar with different levels of care. That background helps when a person needs practical steps to manage intense feelings or to rebuild daily routines. He says he finds it meaningful when people make clearer choices about how they relate to others and themselves.
In sessions he helps people name emotions, practice different ways of responding, and set small goals they can try between meetings. He also addresses topics like attachment patterns, codependency, commitment and control issues, and common struggles such as guilt, shame, or midlife concerns. Practical skills and reflective conversation are both part of his approach.
Michael works in English and does not accept international clients. He asks prospective clients to use the site flow to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How his approaches translate to online care
Michael uses client-centered therapy to listen closely and prioritize what matters to the person. That approach focuses on understanding concerns and naming values so decisions feel clearer, which can help with anxiety and relationship issues.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT includes practicing new ways of thinking and testing small behavioral changes between meetings, which can reduce symptoms like worry or low mood over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michael will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and together decide whether to emphasize client-centered listening, CBT techniques, or existential and psychodynamic ideas depending on what fits best.
