Marta Kem Therapy is a private psychotherapy practice in Northglenn, Colorado, founded and led by Marta Kem, LMFT – a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Breathwork Facilitator. The practice provides individual therapy, individual relationship therapy, breathwork sessions, and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for adults throughout Colorado, with both in-person and online sessions available.

If you’ve been living with anxiety that won’t quiet down, carrying grief or trauma that has followed you for years, or feeling stuck in relationship patterns you can’t seem to break, therapy can offer a path toward meaningful and lasting change. Therapy at Marta Kem Therapy is grounded in a relational, trauma-informed, somatic, and non-pathologizing approach – meaning the work begins with the belief that your struggles are part of being human, not evidence that something is wrong with you.

Therapy isn’t about having all the answers

You don’t need to know exactly what’s wrong before reaching out.

Many people begin therapy simply because something doesn’t feel right anymore. Maybe you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted from carrying everything alone. Therapy offers a place to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin moving toward lasting change.

Marta Kem Therapy Areas of support

Life can become difficult in ways that are hard to explain — anxiety that never fully quiets, grief that lingers, relationship patterns that repeat, or a growing sense of disconnection from yourself and others. Relational, trauma-informed psychotherapy is offered for adults seeking deeper understanding, emotional healing, and meaningful change.

Marta works with adults navigating:

  • Anxiety and chronic stress– persistent worry, emotional overwhelm, social anxiety, and stress that affects daily life and relationships
  • Depression and emotional disconnection– low mood, hopelessness, numbness, and difficulty finding motivation or meaning
  • Developmental trauma– early relational wounds and longstanding patterns rooted in childhood experiences
  • Grief and loss– bereavement, life transitions, relationship endings, and other significant losses
  • Life transitions– career shifts, changing relationships, and periods of uncertainty or disorientation
  • Relationship and attachment challenges– communication struggles, family dynamics, intimacy concerns, and recurring relational patterns

Not sure where you fit?

You don’t have to arrive with the “right” problem. Therapy isn’t only for moments of crisis—it can also be a space for greater self-understanding, healing, and more meaningful connection.

What it's like to work Together

Beginning therapy can feel uncertain, especially if it’s your first time or you’ve had an experience in the past that didn’t feel like the right fit. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you begin.

Your first session is a conversation. Together, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy, what you’ve been carrying, and what you’re hoping will be different. You don’t have to tell your whole story during your first session. Therapy begins by building trust, understanding your goals, and moving at a pace that feels safe and respectful to you.

At Marta Kem Therapy, the work is collaborative, relational, and grounded in emotional safety. Rather than focusing on labels or quick fixes, therapy creates space to better understand your experiences, your relationships, and the patterns that have shaped your life.

The goal isn’t to “fix” you—it’s to help you reconnect with yourself in ways that feel more compassionate, grounded, and authentic. Therapy becomes a place where healing, greater self-understanding, and meaningful change can unfold naturally.

At the heart of that process is the therapeutic relationship itself. Research consistently shows that one of the strongest predictors of successful therapy isn’t a particular technique—it’s the quality of the relationship between therapist and client. Clients often describe Marta as warm, compassionate, and easy to talk with, creating a space where they feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences with honesty, curiosity, and hope.

Marta’s Approach to Therapy as a Licensed Psychotherapist in Northglenn, CO

Marta’s work is grounded in family systems theory and integrates relational, experiential, somatic, and trauma-informed approaches to psychotherapy. Rather than viewing symptoms in isolation, she explores how relationships, attachment experiences, emotions, and nervous system responses influence the way people experience themselves and the world around them.

Her approach is intentionally non-pathologizing, recognizing that many emotional struggles represent adaptive responses to difficult life experiences rather than personal flaws. Therapy becomes a collaborative process of developing greater awareness, self-compassion, and more authentic ways of relating to yourself and others.

Whether you’re beginning therapy for the first time or returning after time away, Marta’s goal is to create a therapeutic relationship where you feel understood, supported, and free to explore your experiences with greater compassion, curiosity, and hope.

Whether you’re ready to schedule your first session or would like to begin with a free 15-minute consultation, the first step is simply reaching out. Marta Kem Therapy welcomes the opportunity to answer your questions and help you determine what feels right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a psychotherapist, and how is it different from a therapist? — A psychotherapist is a licensed mental health professional trained to help people work through emotional, psychological, and relational challenges through talk therapy and other therapeutic approaches. While the word “therapist” is often used broadly, “psychotherapist” typically refers to someone with graduate-level clinical training and professional licensure. Marta Kem Therapy provides psychotherapy through Marta Kem, LMFT, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, for adults in Northglenn, Colorado.

Does Marta Kem Therapy accept insurance? — Marta Kem Therapy is a private-pay practice and does not bill insurance directly. However, Marta Kem Therapy can provide you with a superbill (an itemized receipt) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Many PPO plans reimburse a portion of out-of-network therapy costs. Contact your insurance provider to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits before your first session.

How much does psychotherapy cost in Northglenn, CO? — Psychotherapy sessions at Marta Kem Therapy are $185 for a 50 to 60 minute session. Fees increase by $10 annually. A limited number of sliding-scale spots may be available for clients needing additional financial flexibility. Marta Kem Therapy can also provide a superbill for potential out-of-network reimbursement through PPO insurance plans.

What can I expect in my first therapy session? — Your first session at Marta Kem Therapy is a conversation combined with therapy. It’s an opportunity for you to share what’s bringing you to therapy and for Marta to understand your situation, your goals, and what kind of support would be most useful. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. By the end of the session, you’ll have a clearer sense of how working together would look and whether the fit feels right.

Do you offer online therapy sessions in Colorado? — Yes. Marta Kem Therapy offers telehealth (video therapy via Zoom) for clients anywhere in Colorado. Online sessions are conducted the same way as in-person sessions. They are scheduled at a regular time and held in a private, confidential space of your choosing. In-person sessions are also available at the Northglenn office at 11154 Huron St #104A, Northglenn, CO 80234.

What issues or conditions do you work with? — Marta Kem Therapy works with adults navigating a range of life experiences and mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, developmental trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, and relational difficulties.

How do I know if psychotherapy is right for me? — If you’re experiencing persistent stress, anxiety, grief, relational difficulties, or a sense that something in your life isn’t working, therapy can be a productive space to explore that. You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from psychotherapy. Many people find it helpful during life transitions, periods of uncertainty, or whenever they want a skilled, confidential space to think through what they’re navigating. The best way to find out if it’s a good fit is to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Is seeking therapy a sign of weakness? — No. Seeking therapy often reflects self-awareness, courage, and a willingness to care for your emotional well-being. Many people carry the belief that they should manage everything alone, but therapy can provide support, perspective, and connection during difficult or uncertain periods of life.
