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.

Therapists are available throughout Arvada and nearby areas, including neighborhoods like Scenic Heights, Allendale, and Rainbow Ridge, as well as bordering communities such as Wheat Ridge and Westminster. In-person therapy is offered across several Arvada zip codes, with online sessions available to individuals and families across the entire state of Colorado.

Providers bring specialized experience in issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, parenting support, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether you’re seeking short-term counseling or long-term support, sessions are available in welcoming office settings or through secure, HIPAA-compliant video therapy.

Many therapists in Arvada accept Kaiser Permanente and a wide range of other insurance plans. You can use the filters to refine your search by specialty, insurance participation, therapy format, or real-time availability.

Adjustment disorder is a stress-related condition that occurs when someone has difficulty coping with a significant life change or unexpected event. This might include a breakup, job loss, move, medical diagnosis, or any shift that disrupts a person’s sense of stability. While the trigger may vary, people with adjustment disorder often experience intense sadness, anxiety, irritability, or hopelessness that feels disproportionate to the situation. It can affect sleep, appetite, motivation, and the ability to concentrate, making daily routines feel overwhelming. Children and adults alike can struggle with this, and symptoms usually emerge within three months of the stressor.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use evidence-based approaches to help clients navigate adjustment disorder with compassion and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is often effective in identifying thought patterns that intensify distress, while Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can build emotional flexibility during difficult transitions. Some therapists may also use mindfulness-based techniques or brief solution-focused strategies to create a sense of calm and direction. Therapy provides space to process change, learn coping tools, and rebuild confidence in a supportive, non-judgmental setting. New clients may want to ask about short-term treatment options and whether a focused, goal-oriented approach is the right fit.

Care is available in person across the Greater Denver Area and through secure online therapy for clients anywhere in Colorado. All providers listed here are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept additional major insurance plans. Whether you’re facing a life change or feeling stuck in its aftermath, Westside makes it easier to find help that fits your needs and schedule.

Adulthood often brings a complex mix of responsibilities, expectations, and internal challenges. Career shifts, family demands, health concerns, grief, and evolving personal identities can all contribute to emotional strain. Adults in this age group may experience anxiety, burnout, depression, or difficulty maintaining healthy relationships. Even those who appear to be functioning well on the surface may benefit from a space to process emotions, gain perspective, and build healthier coping mechanisms.

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, our therapists collaborate with adult clients to create a treatment plan that fits their lifestyle, values, and goals. Evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and trauma-informed care are often used. Therapy may involve exploring personal patterns, working through long-standing emotional blocks, improving communication skills, or managing ongoing stressors with greater resilience and self-awareness.

Adults across Colorado can connect with Westside therapists either in person at locations throughout the Denver metro area or virtually through secure online sessions. All providers are contracted with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept additional insurance networks. Whether you’re seeking short-term support during a life change or long-term mental health care, Westside offers accessible, professional therapy designed to help adults navigate life with greater clarity and emotional strength.
