About Brannon
Dr. Brannon Pruet is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, and relationship concerns.
Background and approach
He also supports those coping with ADHD, low self-esteem, eating struggles, and major life changes. He combines talk therapy and practical strategies to help people get through hard moments.
He works in a direct, down-to-earth way. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on steps people can try between meetings.
He uses approaches such as the Gottman Method for relationship work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered care to guide sessions. Dr.
Pruet trained broadly in counseling and psychology. He earned a doctorate in Psychology from Grand Canyon University and a master’s in Counseling from Denver Seminary.
He also studied theology at Duke University and holds a Bachelor’s degree from Auburn University. He is an ordained evangelical Christian minister.
He has experience across hospital, residential, and community mental health settings. That background includes inpatient psychiatric care, crisis assessment in emergency rooms, and work helping adolescents and young adults in program settings.
Those roles shaped his comfort with complex and persistent conditions. In practice he blends evidence-based skills with attention to personal values.
People meet a therapist who listens, offers clear tools, and helps them try new ways of coping. Therapy is collaborative and aimed at small, manageable changes over time.
How therapy approaches adapt to online care
Gottman-informed work focuses on communication patterns and practical exercises couples or partners can use to rebuild connection. In online sessions this often means practicing turn-taking, repair techniques, and structured conversations guided by the therapist. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values; online ACT sessions introduce exercises to try between meetings and brief mindfulness practices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; therapists use online sessions to teach and rehearse those skills and assign short practice tasks.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which tools to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people do longer, interactive sessions that include exercises and real-time feedback. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, daily coaching, or quick skill reminders between appointments. These formats make scheduling more flexible and let therapy fit around work, caregiving, or school commitments.
