Cole Kiker
MA, LPC • Licensed Professional Counselor
About
Late into the night, when most therapists have long since closed their offices, Cole Kiker, MA, LPC, is just getting started. As a self-proclaimed night owl, Cole has made it his mission to provide accessible mental health care during unconventional hours, offering virtual evening, late evening, and Sunday session times to accommodate those who struggle to find support during traditional business hours.
Cole's approach to therapy is as unique as his scheduling. He employs a person-centered, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral methodology, recognizing that everyone's struggles and life experiences are distinct. Cole doesn't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach; instead, he works collaboratively with clients to identify their goals and shift problematic thinking patterns that may be creating roadblocks to success.
With 13 years of experience in the counseling field, Cole has developed expertise in a wide range of areas. His specialties include anxiety, trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, OCD, anger management, depression, bipolar disorder, grief/loss, and addiction. For clients seeking deeper transformation and healing from trauma or problematic memories, Cole also offers EMDR therapy.
Cole's educational background is robust, having earned his Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Houston Baptist University and his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Houston. His extensive work with underserved and at-risk adults in the community, as well as his experience in managing and mentoring other mental health professionals, has equipped him with a wealth of knowledge and skills to support clients through their most challenging emotional issues.
In the therapy room, Cole values building rapport, trust, and a shared commitment to progress and well-being. He believes that while therapy can address serious issues, sessions don't always have to be heavy. Cole injects levity and candor when appropriate, creating a safe space where clients feel comfortable expressing even their most difficult thoughts and feelings. His naturally engaging and straightforward personality helps keep clients tuned in and motivated, even during late-night sessions.
For those feeling nervous about finding the right therapist, Cole offers a reassuring presence. He's dedicated to helping clients navigate the therapeutic process and find the support they need to cultivate a fulfilling and balanced life. Whether you're grappling with anxiety in the small hours of the morning or seeking trauma support on a Sunday afternoon, Cole Kiker stands ready to meet you where you are - both in time and in your journey towards healing.
