Teresa Sahhar
I am Teresa Sahhar MA, LPC, NCC. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, and I work with adult individuals and couples, specializing in couples therapy. I would love to help you!
If you are looking to engage in therapy along with your spouse or significant other, I have specialized training in couples counseling. I have completed over 100 hours of focused education in addition to my counseling degree in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). According to research, the EFT approach sees 70-75% of couples move from distress to recovery, and approximately 90% of couples show significant improvements. If you are feeling disconnected in your relationship, your communication is broken or non-existent, you can’t seem to get past a significant emotional injury, or you’re finding yourselves repeating the same destructive relational cycles over and over again - give me a call! I want to walk with you on your journey to meaningful connection and relational healing. I am a “hopeful therapist” and will continue to help you find each other again, even if the path gets rough.
In addition to traditional couples counseling, I also offer premarital counseling for those of you who are engage or looking forward to marriage in the near future. I use an assessment that covers many of the “big areas” that couples tend to get stuck in once they are moving through their marriage. We will use the information from that assessment to work though some of the issues before they show up. What a great foundation this will give you as you as you begin your lives together! It might just be the best wedding gift you receive!
If you are looking for individual counseling, I am also here for you. I can help you recover from past trauma, break destructive patterns, find pathways out of depression or anxiety, help you learn to set healthy boundaries, or walk with you through many other things you might be struggling with. I am compassionate and understanding and will offer you a safe haven that is free from judgement. No matter what you are struggling with, there is hope for change and healing.
