The Child and Family Therapy Center of Denver

Improving the Lives of Each Family They Serve

Founded by Kelly Curnalia in 2012, The Child and Family Therapy Center of Denver emerged from Kelly’s passion as a licensed clinical social worker to support children and families. Before establishing the center, Kelly worked at The Butterfly Program, Colorado’s sole pediatric palliative care program, where she provided emotional support to terminally ill children and their families. Frustrated by the program’s limited resources that led to turning away families in need, Kelly was inspired to create a mental health center dedicated to children with life-limiting illnesses.
