Sarah Harrison, MA, LMFT

When we feel alone, we begin to understand loneliness. But when we’re in a relationship and still feel alone—that’s a different kind of pain. As human beings, our need for connection is deeply rooted in our biology. We are wired for relationship, yet maintaining one takes courage, humility, and work.

As a Certified Gottman Method Therapist, I specialize in helping couples build stronger, more fulfilling relationships. Drawing from over five decades of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, I teach research-based tools that help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and reconnect emotionally and physically. I am trained to help couples heal from challenges such as affairs, addiction, and trauma, and my goal is not only to reduce conflict but to help you create a relationship grounded in friendship, respect, and intimacy.

Research shows that 69% of relationship problems are perpetual—rooted in personality differences rather than resolvable issues. Our work together focuses on managing these differences through effective communication, empathy, and understanding, so that you can navigate conflict without damaging your emotional connection.

As a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional, I also integrate evidence-based approaches to restore friendship, passion, and intimacy within relationships. I believe that when partners feel truly known and understood, they are able to influence each other positively and deepen their emotional and physical connection.

I offer marriage intensives in the Denver Metro Area, designed to help couples achieve meaningful progress in a condensed, focused setting. These intensives are an investment in your relationship—a way to pack the equivalent of six months of therapy into a weekend. Using tools like the Gottman Relationship Checkup and Gottman Relationship Builder, couples receive powerful insights and ongoing resources to continue growth long after our sessions end.

In addition to couples therapy, I provide in-person and online therapy for individuals as young as age 5, as well as family therapy and parenting support.

Parenting can be both beautiful and overwhelming. Comparisons often steal our joy, especially when we feel like we’re not doing “enough.” Whether you’re juggling co-parenting after divorce, navigating your child’s behavioral or emotional challenges, or trying to balance it all as a single parent, I’m here to help you feel seen, supported, and equipped with tools that work.

I’ve spent over a decade working with children, teens, and families in a variety of settings, including child welfare, outpatient programs, psychiatric hospitals, residential dual-diagnosis centers, and the Department of Juvenile Justice. I have been accepted by the courts in Douglas, Arapahoe, Adam's, and Elbert County as a blind expert witness in children/adolescent sexual abuse cases and testify at jury trials.

I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, depression, behavioral issues, trauma, divorce, parenting challenges, and family conflict. I am also certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), a highly effective, evidence-based approach for children and adolescents who have experienced trauma.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Colorado and Florida, I am trained to work with individuals, couples, and families through every stage of life. Whether you’re seeking personal growth, support for your child, or a stronger connection with your partner, I strive to provide a safe, compassionate, and collaborative environment where healing and change can take root.
