Therapy Services
Individual and group counseling services
for primary and secondary survivors,
ages three and up.
We’re here to help.
The SAVA Center provides individual and group therapy services for survivors of sexual violence, as well as their loved ones. Therapy offered at the SAVA Center is trauma-specific and trauma-focused, meaning that our therapy services concentrate on addressing the specific ways in which sexual violence has impacted your life.
The SAVA Center does not offer mental health crisis services. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency or need immediate mental health support, please call 911 for your nearest emergency department, or use one of the following resources:
National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: 988 (Call or Text)
SummitStone Health Partners (Larimer County): (970) 494-4200
North Range Behavioral Health (Weld County): (970) 347-2120
Individual Therapy
All SAVA therapists practice in a client-centered and trauma-informed manner and are invested in working with each client to find what works best for them in therapy. Some of the therapeutic approaches used by our clinicians are:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Play Therapy (for children age 3 to 9)
Expressive Therapies
Survivors of sexual violence can receive up to one year of individual therapy services at the SAVA Center; affected family members, partners, and friends of survivors can receive up to six months of individual therapy.
Bilingual, individual therapy is available for Spanish-speaking adult survivors via telehealth on Saturdays.
Group Therapy
The groups we offer vary based on the needs we see in our communities and on our therapists’ areas of specialization. You do not need to be a current SAVA client to participate in our groups.
To find out about the groups we are currently offering, please contact the clinical team or call one of our offices.
How do I access SAVA’s Therapy Services?
-
After you fill out the form, someone from the clinical team will reach out to you as soon as possible.
We can provide you with more information about our therapy services and will collect some basic information from you*. If it seems like the therapy we offer aligns with your needs, then we will schedule a consultation with one of our staff therapists.
*Please note: if you call to inquire about therapy for anyone under the age of 18, we require a case number.
-
Consultations help us determine if SAVA’s therapy services would be a good fit for your needs.
During the consultation, you will be asked to share some information about yourself and what you are hoping to get out of therapy. Please note that the therapist you meet with for your consultation may or may not be the therapist you work with if you begin therapy at SAVA.
For the consultation, please bring any information you have related to our payment options for services. If you have Medicaid, this includes bringing a copy of your Medicaid card and/or plan number. If you have applied for Crime Victim Compensation and have received a letter from them in response, please bring a copy of that letter.
At the end of the consultation, if we seem to be the best fit for your needs, we'll add your name to our therapy waiting list.
If SAVA isn't the best organization to meet your needs, we will provide you with referrals to other agencies and/or providers that could be a better fit for your needs.
-
As soon as one of our therapists has an opening, they will call you and discuss scheduling and what appointment time(s) they have available. If one of those times works for you, you will be scheduled to begin services with that therapist.
If the appointment time(s) the therapist has available will not work with your schedule, you will remain on the waiting list until another therapist has an opening and is able to contact you with their availability.
The time it takes to receive a call from one of our therapists varies depending on several factors, such as the number of people ahead of you on the list, preferences you may have identified about a therapist and/or their therapeutic approach, the office location in which you hope to be seen for therapy, and your availability for appointments, among others. Please note that appointments at 3:00pm or later have the highest demand, so your wait may be longer if this is the only time frame in which you are able to schedule appointments.
Therapy Interest Contact Form
As with all mental health professionals in Colorado, everyone on SAVA’s clinical team is a mandated reporter. We are required by law to report any disclosure or suspicion of abuse or neglect of a minor or an at-risk adult. This includes past abuse or neglect of a minor who is now an adult, if the perpetrator is currently in a position of trust over other minors. In addition, we are required to initiate a mental health evaluation of anyone who is at imminent risk of causing serious harm to themselves, another person, or a specified location.
Be advised that if you choose to submit the contact form below, information you share may require us to make a mandatory report to the appropriate authorities. If a report about abuse and/or neglect of a minor or an at-risk adult has already been made, it will need to be re-reported if a case number is not provided.
If you want to proceed with seeking individual or group therapy at the SAVA Center, please complete the form below. Submitted forms are reviewed Monday through Thursday during business hours, unless our offices are closed. Someone from the clinical team will get back to you as soon as possible.
As a reminder, the SAVA Center does not offer mental health crisis services. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency or need immediate mental health support, please call 911 for your nearest emergency department, or use one of the following resources:
National Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: 988 (Call or Text)
