About Kelley
Kelley Sullivan is an LCSW with 19 years of clinical experience. She practices in Colorado and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and a wide range of life strain.
She offers straightforward, person-focused work that emphasizes emotions and attachment. Sessions tend to look at patterns in relationships and hard-to-name feelings. Kelley draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy along with cognitive and acceptance-based methods to help people understand what is happening in their reactions and choices.
Her background includes long-term clinical practice across multiple states and experience with complex presentations. She often addresses issues tied to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and caregiving stress. Other areas she commonly sees include body image, eating and sleeping problems, chronic illness and pain, and co-morbid mental health concerns.
Kelley also works with people concerned about sexual expression and kink, bipolar disorder, autism and Asperger syndrome, personality-related patterns, and blended family dynamics. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the person’s priorities and CBT and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to teach practical skills for managing thoughts and behavior.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and is billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with core emotions and relationship patterns. It helps people name difficult feelings and notice how those feelings shape interactions and reactions.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical ways to live by your values while accepting uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when avoidance has become a problem.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship experiences influence present behavior and emotional responses. It can be helpful when worries trace back to abandonment, caregiving stress, or attachment issues.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelley will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She often blends EFT with skills from CBT and ACT depending on what a client needs.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Practical benefits of working remotely include fitting sessions into busy schedules, shorter check-ins when time is tight, and fewer travel demands. Therapists can still teach behavioral skills, guide emotion-focused work, and use ACT exercises effectively in virtual formats.
