About Nikki
Nikki Ciletti is an LPC with 24 years of clinical experience in Colorado. She centers her work on clear, respectful conversation and practical steps that help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and relationship struggles. Nikki aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for everyday life.
She uses a client-centered stance to create a calm, listening space where each person decides the priorities. From there she draws on cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try different ways of coping. Emotionally-focused ideas are used when attachment and closeness are the main issues.
Nikki has long experience supporting people through divorce and separation and helping those affected by domestic violence and substance use. She also supports people navigating adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, and communication problems. Codependency and intimacy-related concerns are included among her common focus areas.
Parents and caregivers will find straightforward strategies for managing anger, compassion fatigue, and the pressures of parenting. She also addresses trauma, grief, ADHD, and social anxiety in practical, step-by-step ways. Treatment emphasizes change the person can notice between sessions.
Nikki works with each person to set realistic goals and adapt approaches as needed. She brings steady experience without jargon, aiming for measurable improvements in mood, relationships, and daily functioning.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgment. Online sessions can still prioritize this careful listening while helping the client set goals and steer conversations where they matter most.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. In online sessions this often means homework between meetings, tracking patterns, and practicing small experiments to test new ways of coping.
Emotionally-focused therapy, or EFT, looks at how emotions shape close relationships and personal safety. When attachment or intimacy are central concerns, EFT-style conversations can help people name feelings and try new ways of connecting.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can change as progress is made and new needs appear.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives. It can also support shorter check-ins, allow for work without commuting, and reduce time away from family or job obligations.
