Celeste Labadie
RLT - Relational Life Couples Therapist
Sessions Available in my Lafayette, CO office or Online
Welcome — I’m glad you’re here.
I’m Celeste Labadie, a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 13 years of experience in private practice, helping couples heal, reconnect, and build stronger, more fulfilling relationships.
I specialize in Relational Life Therapy (RLT) —the transformative approach developed by Terry Real, which blends honest, direct feedback with deep compassion and relational skill-building.
RLT helps couples break out of stuck patterns, take healthy accountability, and create deeper emotional intimacy built on mutual respect and connection.
I incorporate parts work and neurobiological grounding tools to help couples better understand their internal responses, regulate their nervous systems, and create more safety and compassion in the relationship.
In addition to weekly sessions, I also offer weekend Couple Intensives — extended, focused support for couples navigating crisis or high-conflict situations. These intensives provide a powerful opportunity to dive deep, gain clarity, and begin meaningful repair when your relationship needs more immediate care.
Whether you’re working to rebuild trust, improve communication, or rediscover the joy in your connection, I provide a safe, supportive, and direct experience where real, lasting change is possible — and where both of you will be truly heard.
I offer non-judgmental, trauma-informed therapy for couples of all types, including hetero-normative, same-sex, bisexual, consensually non-monogamous, and polyamorous partnerships. I honor the diversity of identities, expressions, and structures that people bring into their lives and relationships.
I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Regis University, and I’m a certified Relational Life Therapy (RLT) Bootcamp Facilitator. I’m also certified in PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy) by Dr. Stan Tatkin, and certified Imago Relationship Therapist, which further supports my integrative, neuroscience-informed, and emotionally attuned approach to working with couples.
When I am frustrated and feeling justified in my judgments of my partner (who I love deeply)… these are the questions I ask myself?
Gratitude
“We came to Celeste feeling withdrawn from each other and unsure how to find our way back. I don’t know how she did it, but we found ourselves laughing and enjoying the process. Celeste’s skillful way of naming what was happening between us opened me. I had a profound moment of clarity. We walked out with knowledge of how to not let ourselves slip into disconnectedness and with the clarity that we ARE meant to be together.”
