About Nikki

Nikki Ciletti is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 24 years of practice. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, addictions, parenting pressures, relationship strains, and major life changes. Nikki aims to create a calm space where people can speak openly and find steady ways to move forward.

Her work often centers on anxiety-related issues, including social anxiety and panic disorder and panic attacks. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Addiction recovery and substance concerns are a frequent focus as well.

Nikki uses Client-Centered Therapy to meet people where they are and build trusting collaboration. She blends that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and try practical changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when relationships and emotional bonds are central to the problem.

She has experience with diverse family situations such as blended families, adoption and foster care, and clients who are neurodivergent. Nikki also addresses communication problems, codependency, divorce and separation, and intimacy-related issues.

People who work with her can expect straightforward conversation and concrete strategies they can practice between sessions. She supports international clients and conducts sessions in English. Start by using the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful, collaborative relationship. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what they share, and helps set goals based on the client’s values and needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Sessions often include practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and step-by-step behavior changes that reduce anxiety and panic symptoms.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) attends to attachment and emotional bonds. It helps people identify core emotions and change the way they respond in close relationships or during intense emotional moments.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try strategies, and adjust based on what helps most. Goals, preferences, and day-to-day life shape which methods are used and how sessions proceed.

Please confirm current session formats before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and support work on anxiety or panic symptoms from familiar routines. Licensed professionals can adapt homework, breathing and exposure exercises, and communication practice to an online setting so therapy fits into everyday life without requiring a specific location.
