Meet Our Counselors

Sarah Scheid (formerly Sutherland), LPC

Owner/Primary Therapist, Peaks Counseling

Hello and welcome! I’m Sarah Scheid and I am a licensed professional counselor specializing in individual child, adolescent, and adult therapy. I am the owner of Peaks Counseling and I hold over 10 years experience in the field of psychology. I currently serve as the main practitioner at Peaks Counseling and I work with a broad range of clients.  My training includes receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree in Human Development from Metropolitan State University of Denver in 2009 and my Master of Arts degree in Clinical Mental Heath Counseling in 2011.  My areas of expertise include grief, anger management, depression, anxiety, social/relational problems, play therapy, Autism Spectrum disorders, sensory processing disorders, trauma, and other various mood disorders. I also provides life coaching for adults in areas such as career, personal growth, relational/social growth, and general health/well-being.

I am a humanistic and person-centered therapist. My therapeutic approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and eclectic techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I will work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing. I am currently accepting patients Monday-Thursday and accept private pay or Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance member clients.

When I’m not providing counseling services, I’m either traveling, spending time outdoors (skiing, hiking, paddle boarding, you name it), playing/watching sports, snuggling and playing with my pets, and spending time with my husband and 1 year old little girl. I absolutely love Colorado and all the adventures that come with our beautiful state.  I graduated from Cherry Creek High School in 2004 and I am very familiar with the Greenwood Village/ Centennial areas.  I have a huge passion for climbing mountains and even spent summer of 2015 reaching my goal of climbing to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa! I believe with passion and motivation that anything can be accomplished. I hope that through my therapeutic work I can encourage others to achieve their goals and conquer their own personal “peaks!”

Karis Lambert, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

Hello! My name is Karis Lambert and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Colorado. I earned my Bachelors of Science in Human Development and Family Studies from Colorado
State University and my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from the University of Denver. During my graduate studies I completed internships with adults in a drug and alcohol rehab and teenagers in a
school setting. After completing graduate school, I spent several years working at various eating disorder treatment centers in Colorado. I specialize in working with adults and teens that struggle with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, eating disorders, body image, relational issues, and life transitions.

I strive to be a person-centered therapist that believes therapy is an extremely personal experience that should be tailored to each person based on their needs, goals, and personal history. I work to create a
warm and authentic environment that we can utilize to explore different areas of your life that you feel stuck in. I believe that our emotions hold a lot of wisdom and power and should not be ignored but explored and validated. I utilize several different therapeutic modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution-focused, and dialectical behavioral therapy.

Outside of the therapy room I enjoy spending time with my husband and three kids. I love being
outdoors, connecting with friends, trying new restaurants, and treating myself to a delicious cup of
coffee. I’m excited you’ve taken this first, brave step in your journey. Please reach out if you have any
questions or would like to connect.
