About Nikki

Nikki Ciletti is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 24 years of experience. She focuses on helping people build healthier self esteem while addressing stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. Nikki aims to make therapy approachable and practical for everyday life.

Her sessions are straightforward and person-focused. She listens first, then helps clients identify clear goals and small steps forward. People often work on managing intense emotions, improving communication, and coping with life changes.

Nikki combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques to change patterns of thinking and behavior. She also draws on emotionally-focused ideas to strengthen closeness and resolve conflicts in relationships. These approaches are used to address issues like panic attacks, social anxiety, and intimacy-related concerns.

She has worked with people facing adoption and foster care questions, blended family dynamics, and neurodiversity including autism and Asperger Syndrome. Nikki also supports those coping with grief, trauma, domestic violence, and substance use challenges. Her background includes long-term work with people navigating divorce, separation, and codependency.

Nikki accepts international clients and helps people find a rhythm that fits their daily life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they are. It helps people feel heard, clarifies goals, and guides therapists to follow the client’s lead in deciding what to address.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, panic attacks, negative thinking, and challenges with self esteem by practicing small, targeted exercises between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions and improve connection in relationships. It can be useful for intimacy-related concerns, communication problems, and managing conflict with loved ones.

Deciding on an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what works best. Clients shape the pace and focus so therapy fits their needs and preferences.

Discuss the practical arrangements before beginning therapy online. Confirm the current session options, fees, and appointment schedule, and raise any access needs or communication preferences. The aim is to understand the next steps and decide whether the proposed arrangements work for you.
