About Kelley
Kelley Sullivan, LCSW, brings 19 years of clinical experience to her work in Colorado. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Kelley offers straightforward, compassionate care and adapts sessions to each person's needs.
Her practice centers on building a calm, respectful space where people can talk through painful events and confusing feelings. Sessions aim to strengthen coping skills, improve communication, and reduce overwhelm. She uses practical tools so clients can try new ways of handling difficult moments between appointments.
Background and approach
Kelley draws from several well-established approaches, including the Gottman Method for relationship patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take meaningful action, and Attachment-Based Therapy to understand how early bonds affect current relationships. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She works with a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, addictions, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, and career stress. Kelley also supports people facing more specific challenges like adoption and foster care questions, caregiving strain, chronic illness, and identity issues within the LGBT community.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and can be scheduled in formats that fit busy lives. New clients start with a short questionnaire to match with the right format and appointment time. Kelley aims to make therapy practical, understandable, and focused on real-life change.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Kelley uses approaches that translate well to online care. The Gottman Method focuses on patterns of interaction and communication. It helps people recognize repeating habits and practice new ways of talking and listening to reduce conflict and increase connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when someone feels stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and closeness. It can help people understand fear of abandonment, trust issues, and patterns that affect intimacy. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelley will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which methods to start with and check in regularly to adjust the plan. Online formats offer practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face without travel. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing contact between scheduled meetings, making care more flexible and accessible.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you. It does not change what you pay or the order of the listings.
