Teri is one of the best counselors in the Denver area! She is warm, engaging, and exceptional at building rapport, and then thoughtfully guiding a client out of a difficult place to sustainable wellness. She is compassionate and strategic in the way she thoughtfully helps individuals and families restore their confidence in themselves.
I have been a client of Creative Counseling Center for 9 months now, and have found it to be a wonderful experience. My therapist, Lesley Loftis has been instrumental in helping me address issues of insecurity, anxiety and depression.
I encourage anyone considering therapy to call Creative Counseling Center. They are a warm, encouraging environment for which I am immeasurably grateful.
We have had the opportunity of meeting with Sammy. Immediately, we were made to feel welcome and appreciated. We felt comfortable in the office, convenient location, and a waiting area that is equipped with toys and books for children. Our family benefited from the visits and learned tools that are needed when raising young adolescents.
Creative Counseling Center is an amazing place for the Denver community! Teri and her therapists provide a safe place for counseling for children and adults going through trauma in their life from divorce, adoption, grief, anxiety, sexual abuse, and much more. I have worked directly with them for years and cannot express how many positive experiences and referrals come to Creative Counseling Center directly from Pediatricians, Doctors, Attorneys, and more because of their experience with these demographics and specialties. I have my thumb print on her wall....what an amazing culture she has created for her clients for their entry and exit from counseling.
Wonderful place. My daughter loves going to her play doctor once a week. Relaxing and inviting atmosphere.
Creative counseling has been a blessing to our family while we are in crisis! We see Brittany, Danielle and Lesley they are all wonderful, caring and compassionate people! We are grateful to have them to help us on this crazy journey we are on. They are always available when we need them!
Following a D&N case in 2015 in which my former spouse and I were in and I was proven innocent, Creative Counseling Center and their great therapists helped my children cope with and recover from seperation anxiety and attachment disruption trauma. My former spouse and I have agreed to use them in our divorce stipulated parenting agreement and they have worked with our children through disruptive custody issues such as the D&N case where they were unecessarily separated from a parent. They have a great play therapy program and are spectacular with children who have experienced divorce related trauma.
I have worked with Creative Counseling for several years and their compassion, honesty and care is amazing. They have been a wonderful support for our clients and we continue to hear positive feedback from those that receive their supports. It is a counseling group that has a small team feeling but is able to provide a wide variety of supports that matches bigger organizations. The personal connections and sincerity is one of the many reasons we will continue to work with Teri and her team.
Teri Karjala, the visionary therapist behind Creative Counseling Center, has the warmest, most positive and welcoming spirit you will ever find! Her open and fun personality makes conversation easy and natural. Teri's boundless energy and commitment to FUN, coupled with her genuine love and appreciation for everyone, make for a winning combination in child counseling. I recommend her and the staff at Creative Counseling with total confidence.
If you have family dysfunction or a High conflict divorce situation and your childen need a safe place to share about their worries, then creative Counseling is a great resource. Due to our high conflict situation we ultimately had Financial Agreement problems. There was some communication and cooperation problems and several times Creative Counseling and Teri Karjala were willing to work with us on resolving these matters but my Coparent was not. Sabrina was respectful and patient in trying to accommodate our family's needs. Unfortunately, for our Family we were only able to stay at Creative Counseling for ~6 months. We are currently looking for therapists who understand high conflict family situations and who can work with our children and is available to testify if necessary. I avoid discussing my coparent and coparenting matters with my children but even Avoiding a topic can cause children stress around that topic. Our counselors were Mary Whittaker and Trista Charnas and they both did a wonderful job connecting with our children and providing them a safe place to share.
