Our Couples & Sex Therapists

Meet Chelsey Kloeppel

MSW, LSW (she/her)

Welcome! I’m Chelsey Kloeppel, MSW, LSW (she/her), a compassionate therapist at Denver Couples & Sex Therapy. After nearly a decade of working in intensive care units as a nurse, my transition to becoming a therapist has been driven by a desire to care holistically for individuals and relationships, not only for the physical body, but also the mind, heart, and soul.

A Bit About Me

My approach to therapy is based on a deep commitment to the therapeutic process- an intimate portal to pain, pleasure, and alignment. I believe our deepest wounds often become sources of our greatest strength and utmost purpose, and that through the work done in therapy, my clients can experience healing, expand their experience, and live in more fullness, pleasure, and joy. As a couples and sex therapist, I am also dedicated to the erotic and pleasurable. We often absorb narratives about sex and pleasure that are not our own that may provide obstacles to experiencing our true and full sexual selves. I believe everyone has the power to re-author their story, living in alignment with their authentic self.

My Philosophy & Approach

Therapy, to me, is a sanctuary for vulnerable authenticity and compassionate self-discovery. I adopt an eclectic, integrative, and dynamic approach, drawing from various modalities such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Holistic Sex Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing Therapy, and Attachment Theory.

Every session is an opportunity for discovery, healing, empowerment, and reclamation. I strive to provide the curiosity, support, and care for my clients to experience themselves and their relationships in a new way.

What It’s Like to Sit in Session with Me

Sessions with me are fluid and dynamic, designed to meet clients where they are. I strive to create an environment that fosters curious, compassionate exploration of self, relationships, and sex. Expect experiential sessions with role-playing, humor, and deep emotional work. I hope for my clients to feel seen in the parts of them that are fearful, ashamed, abandoned, or rejected and experience the transformation from being accepted, supported, and cared for. My clients are never alone and together, we can explore life experiences, recognize patterns, reconstruct new narratives, and create beautiful change.
