Westside Behavioral Care offers one of Colorado’s largest networks of mental health providers (LPCs, LCSWs, LMFTs, PsyD/PhDs, PMHNPs, etc) dedicated to Kaiser Permanente patients statewide. Established in 1998 with the mission of making appointment scheduling as easy and convenient as possible, Westside’s licensed therapists serve thousands of patients a year by providing supportive counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and more. Appointments are available through in-person sessions across the Denver metro area (Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Boulder, Arvada, etc.) and convenient online therapy statewide.

Thanks to our partnership with Kaiser, members can expect quick access to care (often in as little as 48 hours) without worrying about prior authorizations or referrals. Nearly all Westside therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, meaning you get the care you need at in-network rates. Our team will verify your benefits and share them with your therapist ahead of your first appointment so you’re fully informed going into your first session.

True to our mission, we make scheduling easy for everyone. You can choose your preferred therapist by using our scheduling tool available 24/7, call our friendly receptionists (available Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 5:00pm MST) at (303) 986-4197, complete one of the many contact forms on our website, or email info@westsidebehavioral.com for personal assistance. Our patient-focused approach is designed to give Kaiser members in Colorado a stress-free, positive experience.

Surviving abuse, whether emotional, physical, sexual, or psychological, can leave deep, lasting wounds that impact every part of daily life. Many abuse survivors experience symptoms like anxiety, depression, difficulty trusting others, low self-worth, nightmares, or chronic hypervigilance. These responses are normal reactions to trauma, yet they can make it hard to feel safe, form healthy relationships, or simply get through the day. Abuse can happen to anyone, including children, teens, and adults, and often leads to feelings of shame, guilt, or isolation that make it even harder to reach out for help.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care offer compassionate, trauma-informed support to help abuse survivors process their experiences and reclaim their lives. Depending on your needs, therapy may incorporate evidence-based approaches like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These methods help survivors safely work through trauma, build emotional regulation skills, and reconnect with a sense of empowerment and self-worth. Many clients find it helpful to ask potential therapists about their experience with trauma recovery and which modalities they use in sessions.

Healing is possible, and support is within reach. Westside Behavioral Care offers both in-person sessions across the Greater Denver Area and secure online therapy throughout Colorado, making it easy to get started in a way that fits your life. All of our therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept other major insurance providers. Whether you’re seeking gentle support, trauma processing, or a safe space to start rebuilding, we’re here to help you take the next step forward.

Emerging adulthood brings new freedoms and new stressors. Between college, career choices, evolving friendships, financial independence, and navigating personal identity, this stage can feel both exciting and overwhelming. Many young adults face challenges with anxiety, depression, life direction, relationship struggles, or lingering effects of childhood trauma. Others are simply seeking personal growth and emotional clarity as they begin defining who they are and what they want for their future.

At Westside Behavioral Care, our therapists tailor sessions to meet the evolving needs of young adults in this unique life phase. Therapy might focus on emotional regulation, coping with uncertainty, building self-esteem, or managing stress from school or work. We use a range of proven approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), trauma-informed methods, and mindfulness-based interventions. The therapeutic relationship emphasizes respect, collaboration, and creating a space where clients can openly explore thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

Young adults can access therapy through Westside either in person throughout the Greater Denver Area or through secure online sessions from anywhere in Colorado. Our therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also contracted with other major insurance providers. Whether you’re starting college, entering the workforce, or working through personal transitions, our team is here to support your emotional well-being and long-term growth.
