Cary Truley is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people build self esteem and handle everyday stress. He centers sessions on practical conversation and clear goals. He aims to make starting therapy feel manageable and direct.
He draws on approaches like acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people change unhelpful patterns. Sessions often include learning small skills for managing anxiety, mood, or motivation. The work is collaborative and paced to each person.
Cary has eight years of experience as a counselor and has worked with concerns such as depression, grief, addictions, and trauma and abuse. He also supports people facing relationship and family issues, parenting strain, career pressure, and compassion fatigue.
He pays attention to identity-related concerns, including LGBT issues, and to neurodiversity topics such as autism and Asperger syndrome. Additional focuses include attachment concerns, body image, and communication problems.
Cary adapts conversations and treatment plans to what each person needs. He uses client-centered methods to hear what matters most, and mixes in skills-based work from therapies like DBT when helpful. Taking the first step can feel hard, and his stated aim is to offer steady support through that process.
How Cary’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people name what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and self esteem struggles. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns, often helping with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the person's experience so they feel heard and can steer the work toward their goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cary will work together with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning can include trying a few techniques and adjusting over time so the work feels useful and manageable.
