About Denver Family Institute
Denver Family Institute (DFI) is a private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that operates an affordable counseling clinic and a COAMFTE-accredited Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) post‑degree training program. DFI emphasizes strength-based, systemic therapy and integrates cultural competence, anti-oppression, and LGBTQIA+ affirming practices across services and training.
DFI provides low-fee clinical services to the public while training post‑graduate clinicians through supervised clinical placements; the institute also offers continuing-education and specialty training for existing providers (for example, a multi-month training track focused on working with queer youth and their families launched in late 2024).
