About Brannon

Dr. Brannon Pruet helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, and family concerns. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who brings practical, straightforward care to parents and individuals coping with life changes and relationship strain.

Sessions are focused on clear goals and skills that can be used at home and in daily life. He uses common-sense therapies so people learn tools that work. That includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), along with client-centered techniques that emphasize respect and listening.

Background and approach

He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and existential ideas when they fit a person’s needs. Dr. Pruet earned a doctorate in Psychology from Grand Canyon University and a master’s degree in Counseling from Denver Seminary.

He is an LPC in Colorado (CO LPC 5059) and has three years of experience working under that licensure. His background also includes work in hospital and crisis settings earlier in his career. His approach is practical and collaborative.

He works with people to set clear goals, build coping skills, and address patterns that get in the way of daily life. He includes faith when clients request it, as his own practice is informed by an evangelical Christian perspective. Sessions may include therapy skills, talk-based exploration, and step-by-step plans for change.

People who want straightforward guidance and tools to manage emotions and relationships will find a direct and experienced clinician ready to help.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your schedule

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then act toward values that matter. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions where getting unstuck matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which is helpful for depression, anxiety, and coping skills training. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and respect so people feel understood and can explore what matters to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then recommend one or a mix of these methods. That lets the client and therapist try approaches together and adjust as needed in a collaborative way.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options let people fit sessions around school, work, and family life and let therapy continue when travel or schedules change. Many clients find the variety of formats helps them use therapy techniques in real time and stay consistent with care.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
