About Tyler
Tyler Cole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of clinical experience in Washington. He works with adults on common life pressures like stress, anxiety, grief, parenting strain, relationship problems, and anger. He also supports people coping with trauma, addictions, ADHD, low self-esteem, career concerns, and identity issues.
Tyler uses straightforward, strengths-focused work. He helps people identify values and practical steps they can take between sessions. Conversations stay grounded in everyday life - what feels doable and what gets in the way of making changes.
When trauma or difficult memories come up, Tyler draws on trauma-informed methods and EMDR-informed strategies to reduce the hold of painful experiences. He combines this with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to clarify values and build habits that match those values.
Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused tools appear in sessions to help set short-term goals and keep momentum. Expect a mix of talk, skill practice, and goal-setting rather than long lectures or only insight work.
Tyler describes his role as collaborative. He will help pinpoint what matters to the client, try out manageable changes, and adjust plans when something isn’t working. Sessions emphasize practical coping skills and clearer communication in daily life.
How sessions work
How Tyler blends approaches for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to the client and building small daily actions to match those values. It helps with ongoing stress, anger that erodes relationships, and motivation to change. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to reduce the intensity of painful memories and related reactions; it can be helpful when past trauma fuels present anger. Motivational Interviewing is a brief, conversational style that helps people resolve mixed feelings and commit to practical steps. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tyler will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying a values-based ACT skillset first, then adding EMDR-informed techniques for specific memories, or using solution-focused goals to keep momentum. The profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm available online options before booking. Practical advantages of online sessions can include fitting therapy into a busy day, shorter check-ins when needed, or avoiding travel time. Tyler’s emphasis on brief exercises and goal-setting lends itself to work that fits into everyday routines, and he will discuss how to make sessions useful for each person’s schedule.Areas of focus
