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.

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.

Teenagers experience rapid growth, not only physically but emotionally and mentally, as they move toward adulthood. The teen years often involve major shifts in identity, peer relationships, academic pressure, and emotional regulation. Common concerns during this time include anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, social isolation, academic burnout, family conflict, and navigating gender or sexual identity. With the right tools and guidance, teens can learn to process their experiences and develop the confidence and emotional skills they need for adulthood.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care work collaboratively with teens to create a judgment-free space where they feel heard and understood. Treatment may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, mindfulness strategies, or solution-focused approaches depending on the teen’s needs and preferences. Our therapists are skilled at building trust, balancing autonomy with support, and involving parents or caregivers when helpful, all while prioritizing the teen’s voice in their care.

Westside provides therapy for teens ages 13–18 both in person at locations across the Greater Denver Area and online anywhere in Colorado. All therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many work with additional major insurance providers. Whether your teen needs support with daily stressors or more complex emotional challenges, Westside offers compassionate, accessible care to help them grow and thrive during these critical years.
