About Nicole
Nicole Pyfer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and big life changes. Nicole writes and talks plainly, and she focuses on practical steps people can take between sessions.
Her training includes a Master’s degree in Counseling: Clinical Mental Health and a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice. Nicole pays attention to how early family patterns still shape current reactions.
Background and approach
She often looks at behavior and emotions that formed in childhood and shows how they show up today. Nicole works from a systems perspective and uses approaches that center the person in the room. She helps people notice habits that keep them stuck and then practice different choices.
She also has experience with trauma and with adults who struggle with causing harm to others. In sessions she aims to replace harsh self-beliefs with more balanced, realistic views of the self. Nicole spends time on useful coping skills for anxiety and stress, and on processing grief when loss has left people unsure how to move forward.
Her style is respectful and direct. Nicole tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs and goals. She frames therapy as a step-by-step process and supports clients through the small changes that add up over time.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience without judgment. Online sessions using this style let the therapist follow the client’s pace and priorities and build a collaborative plan that fits daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts, feelings, and actions to find practical steps people can try between sessions. In video or phone sessions Nicole can teach tools, assign brief exercises, and review how those strategies worked in real situations.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and make sense of strong emotions in order to change patterns in relationships and self-view. That kind of work can proceed well by talk-based formats and by reviewing moments from daily life that clients bring to session.
Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. Nicole collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She revises the plan as progress and feedback point the way forward.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging - make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat or texting work for quick check-ins or when writing helps express thoughts. These options make regular contact more practical and let therapy focus on steady, usable changes.
