Who is the best couples therapist in Denver for rebuilding trust after infidelity?
Hi, I am Kayla Crane, LMFT, the owner of South Denver Therapy. I work primarily with couples and I am trained and certified in Systematic Affair Recovery Therapy, SART. When a betrayal comes to light, most couples want two things right away. They want safety in the conversation, and they want a clear plan that does not make things worse. That is exactly what we focus on together.
Many Denver couples from neighborhoods like Wash Park, Cherry Creek, Capitol Hill, and LoDo come to us because they want a calm, steady path that reduces reactivity and gives them words that work at home. Our practice has been voted Best of Best in local readers’ polls multiple years in a row, which reflects the trust our community has placed in our approach.

What affair recovery looks like with SART
Systematic Affair Recovery Therapy, SART gives us a simple, step by step map. We begin with safety and stabilization so both partners can talk without spiraling. We set gentle boundaries for technology, questions, and sleeping arrangements. We agree on short check ins to lower anxiety between sessions. When both partners feel ready, we move into structured truth telling and repair. From there we build daily routines that make trust visible again.
You will not be pushed faster than you are ready to go. The goal is steady progress that shows up outside of session. Most couples notice better sleep, fewer circular arguments, and moments of relief within the first few meetings.
