FAQs and Details for Kaiser Members

Yes! Nearly all of our therapists accept Kaiser Permanente insurance, and other insurance plans, for mental health services in Colorado. We offer in-person and telehealth therapy sessions. To schedule an appointment or verify coverage, call 303-986-4197 or visit our Kaiser providers page.

Our in-network providers do not require a referral or prior authorization to see Kaiser Permanente patients with Colorado-based plans. Patients with out-of-state plans and some psychiatric services may require a prior authorization. If one is needed, our team can request one on your behalf to make the process as easy as possible for you. If you have any questions about your coverage, please contact our team at info@westsidebehavioral.com for assistance.

Of course! You can browse our Kaiser provider profiles accepting new patients here. Our team is also available to help you find a therapist who meets your needs, insurance, and location.

Details about Adolescent and Teen

Adolescence is a time of intense growth, both emotionally and physically, and it can come with unique challenges. Teens often face pressures related to school, social dynamics, identity development, and family changes, all while navigating big emotions and rapid brain development. Anxiety, depression, irritability, academic struggles, and difficulties with friendships or self-esteem are common during this phase. Some teens may withdraw or act out, while others may struggle silently. Whether it’s managing peer pressure, coping with trauma, or adjusting to life transitions, therapy can provide critical support during this transformative time.

 

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care are trained to work specifically with teenagers using evidence-based approaches that foster trust, safety, and emotional growth. Depending on the individual teen’s needs, sessions may incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), or family-based interventions. Therapists may also use creative techniques like art or play therapy to help teens express themselves in ways that feel natural and safe. Therapy offers a space for teens to be heard without judgment, learn coping tools, and strengthen emotional regulation. New clients may want to ask about the therapist’s experience with adolescents and their preferred therapeutic style.

 

We offer both in-person appointments across the Greater Denver Area and secure online therapy options for teens located anywhere in Colorado. Many teens and their families appreciate the flexibility of virtual sessions, especially during busy school years. All Westside providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept a range of other major insurance plans. Getting support for your teen is just a phone call or click away, and we’re here to help every step of the way.
