About Nicole

Nicole Pyfer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or major life changes. Nicole focuses on understanding how past experiences shape current emotions and behaviors so people can move forward with more ease.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice and a Master’s Degree in Counseling: Clinical Mental Health.

Background and approach

She has worked with people impacted by trauma and with those who struggle to break repeating patterns of harm. Nicole often looks at family dynamics and early attachment to see how they affect present relationships and choices. In sessions she keeps conversation direct and respectful.

She draws from client-centered methods to make space for each person’s story and from cognitive behavioral ideas to address unhelpful thoughts and habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy influences the way she helps clients name and shift difficult feelings. Nicole also uses existential ideas to help people find meaning when life feels uncertain.

When relationships are central to the problem, she brings in Imago relationship ideas to explore interaction patterns. Her approach blends practical tools with attention to emotions and values. She aims to tailor each plan to the individual rather than using one-size-fits-all steps.

Nicole emphasizes small, achievable changes and helps people practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Online support

Emotion and Thought Work Online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong emotions so relationships and self-understanding can change. It is useful when feelings feel overwhelming or when patterns in relationships keep repeating.

Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, offering a supportive space to talk and be heard. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. The therapist will ask about your goals, what you’ve tried before, and what feels most helpful. Together you will decide whether emotion-focused work, skill-building from CBT, or a client-centered pace fits best, and that plan can shift as progress happens.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video lets you read facial expressions and body language, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, chat or text can be useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short, ongoing work between longer sessions. These options aim to make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
