Kathleen Sutton, LCPC, LPC
About me
Greetings! I am Kathleen (Kathi) Sutton, a Transpersonal Psychotherapist and Registered Art Therapist licensed in Colorado with 9 years of experience. Before that, I was a parenting coach and educator for many years. I have worked with clients from ages three to ninety three: individuals, families and groups, in residential treatment centers, outpatient group practice, correctional facilities, assisted living and a community-based art therapy collective.
I am especially passionate about working with women seeking empowerment, wanting to build self esteem, recovering from abusive relationships and those seeking direction, encouragement and guidance in navigating big life changes. Navigating the process of aging is also of special interest to me.
I have a strengths-based approach within the context of an authentic relationship, that being the essential foundation for success with any healing modality. I want to get to know you and I want you to feel heard and respected! I strive to help you uncover and validate your inherent health and goodness, with sensitivity to individual needs and interests. I offer a mindfulness approach as I we employ trauma-informed talk therapy, somatosensory therapy, and expressive arts therapies, facilitating insight, expression of feelings, and release of trauma stored in the body and nervous system, thereby building emotional resilience. I can provide psychoeducation, when appropriate, to help you develop practices that can invite self-acceptance as well as support improved self-regulation and self care.
Sometimes even the act of reaching out for help can take you far along a healing path. I would be honored to walk that path with you, and as I relate to the very best in you, I hope to help you to know that best self as well.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kathleen Sutton. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Kathleen is the only reason I'm able to move through the last few weeks with more joy and less anger/sadness (among many other issues). Her ability to guide me through some unpleasant confrentations has saved my brain and heart much stress and anxiety. 10/10, highly recommend~ especially with parenting support and tips.

We have connected well & she understands me in a way that most others don't. It makes it easier to talk to her and for her to provide me with methods that help me.

I always feel heard. Kathleen has been very helpful in directing me to several “aha” moments in how I view my situations and how I can move forward. She’s very easy to talk to.
