FAQs and Details for Kaiser Members
Do you accept Kaiser insurance for therapy in Denver?
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.
Do I need a referral from Kaiser to start therapy?
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.
Can I choose my therapist at Westside Behavioral Care?
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. Feel free to call 303-986-4197 for phone assistance, email us at info@westsidebehavioral.com, or submit a contact form to connect with us.
Details about Child Abuse
Experiencing or witnessing child abuse, whether physical, emotional, sexual, or neglect, can leave deep, lasting emotional wounds. Survivors may carry symptoms of trauma well into adulthood, including anxiety, trust issues, flashbacks, low self-esteem, difficulty with relationships, or unexplained emotional outbursts. For children, signs can include withdrawal, behavioral challenges, fearfulness, or regression in developmental milestones. Each person’s response is unique, but the impact often reaches far beyond the original event and into daily life, family dynamics, and future self-worth.
Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care are trained to support both child survivors and adults processing childhood abuse. Our providers may use evidence-based approaches like Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Play Therapy, or Attachment-Based Therapy to help individuals rebuild safety, process painful memories, and begin healing. Therapy often includes gentle, age-appropriate techniques for children, as well as structured support for parents or caregivers. When reaching out, new clients may want to ask about a therapist’s experience working with abuse survivors, trauma-informed care, or child development expertise.
Care is available both in person across the Greater Denver Area and online throughout Colorado via secure, confidential teletherapy. All Westside Behavioral Care providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept other major insurance plans to help reduce financial barriers. Whether you’re seeking support for your child, yourself, or your family, our team is here to help you take the next step toward safety and healing.
