About Michael

Michael Capre is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who focuses on helping people regain a sense of control. He draws on straightforward conversations about values, self-care, and insight to help people facing anxiety, depression, anger, and self-esteem struggles. Michael works with adolescents and adults and frames change as something people can navigate rather than be overwhelmed by.

He has nine years of clinical experience across outpatient, residential, and inpatient settings. That background exposed him to mood disorders, trauma, impulse-control concerns, and substance-related issues. Today he concentrates on depressive, anxiety, and personality symptoms in teens and adults, and on related areas such as grief, relationship stress, and career strain.

Michael uses a mix of practical approaches in session. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that repeat over time. Existential themes help clarify meaning and values when life feels uncertain.

Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and small steps that fit into everyday life. He also works on attachment patterns, codependency, issues of control, and challenges around commitment and intimacy. Parents concerned about behavior or coping can expect direct support and a plan to try between sessions.

People who are LGBT, dealing with divorce or separation, navigating midlife questions, or facing compassion fatigue are all within his stated focus. Michael invites people to start by identifying what matters to them and then building practical habits that reflect those priorities.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Michael uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by setting specific goals and homework exercises.

He also draws on client-centered therapy, which prioritizes listening and building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. This approach helps people feel heard while they sort out values and next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michael will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then tailor sessions over time. He treats approach selection as a collaborative process rather than a fixed choice at the start.

The main practical benefit of online therapy is fitting sessions into everyday life. It can make it easier to attend from different locations, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which session types are available before booking so arrangements match your needs.
