About Nikki
Nikki Ciletti is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 24 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and relationship struggles. Nikki works with adults who want clear, practical steps and steadier emotional balance.
Her sessions focus on real problems and daily life. She listens first, then helps clients set small, doable goals. Conversations aim to improve coping, reduce overwhelm, and strengthen communication skills.
Background and approach
Nikki uses approaches that center the client's perspective, combine thought-and-behavior work, and attend to emotions in relationships. That mix helps with mood challenges, panic or social anxiety, and patterns that keep people stuck. She also offers support around parenting strain, career pressure, and changes after separation or loss.
She has long experience helping people affected by addiction, domestic violence histories, and trauma. She also supports individuals connected to adoption, foster care, or blended family dynamics. Nikki pays attention to how neurodiversity and autism-related differences can change daily routines and relationships.
Therapy with her emphasizes collaboration. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, reflections about patterns, and practical tools to try between sessions. Nikki aims to help people feel more capable managing emotions and making decisions that fit their lives.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client's lead to build understanding. This approach helps people who need an accepting space to sort through emotions and make their own choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. It suits worries like panic, social anxiety, low mood, and patterns that keep people stuck by giving concrete steps to practice.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions shape close relationships and aims to change interaction patterns. It can help with intimacy-related issues and improving how people connect and communicate.
Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan matches their needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and seeing nonverbal cues, while phone can work when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief sessions into a busy day or keep momentum between meetings. These options provide flexibility so therapy can fit into everyday life.
