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.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental condition that often begins in childhood and can persist into adolescence and adulthood. People with ADHD may struggle with inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity, or a mix of all three. For children, this might show up as difficulty focusing in school, frequent fidgeting, or acting without thinking. In teens and adults, ADHD symptoms can include forgetfulness, poor time management, trouble following through on tasks, and emotional reactivity. While ADHD is often discussed in terms of academic or behavioral challenges, it can also deeply affect self-esteem, relationships, and daily functioning if left undiagnosed or unsupported.

At Westside Behavioral Care, our providers offer comprehensive ADHD evaluations tailored to each client’s age, background, and concerns. These assessments are designed to identify not just symptoms, but the specific ways ADHD may be affecting your life. Therapists may use tools like structured interviews, behavioral checklists, and cognitive assessments to ensure an accurate diagnosis. If ADHD is confirmed, treatment might include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), executive functioning coaching, mindfulness techniques, or psychoeducation. Our therapists often work in collaboration with families, schools, or medical providers when needed. If you’re exploring ADHD evaluations, consider asking your provider about testing procedures, timelines, and what to expect during the process.

Evaluations and ongoing support are available both in person across the Greater Denver Area and via secure online therapy for clients anywhere in Colorado. All therapists listed here are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept additional major insurance plans. Whether you’re seeking answers for your child, teen, or yourself, Westside Behavioral Care offers compassionate, professional support to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

The 10–12 age range is a meaningful time of transition as children begin preparing for adolescence. At this stage, they’re exploring independence, shaping their identity, and learning to manage more complex social dynamics and academic expectations. It’s common for children in this group to experience challenges like anxiety, peer conflict, school stress, emotional regulation difficulties, or family transitions such as divorce or relocation. This is also a key developmental window for building healthy communication skills and internal resilience before entering the teen years.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care create a safe, encouraging environment for children to talk about what’s on their minds and learn practical coping skills. Sessions may include child-led conversations, CBT strategies, problem-solving exercises, and tools for managing stress and emotion. Our providers often integrate family involvement and parent consultations to promote consistency and support outside of sessions. Every therapeutic relationship is tailored to the child’s personality and preferences, ensuring therapy feels comfortable, collaborative, and constructive.

Children ages 10–12 can access therapy through in-person appointments across the Greater Denver Area or through secure virtual sessions from anywhere in Colorado. Our child therapists are credentialed with Kaiser Permanente and many are in-network with additional major insurance providers. Whether you’re looking for emotional support, behavior-focused care, or early mental health intervention, Westside makes high-quality pediatric therapy convenient and approachable for families throughout Colorado.
