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.
In-Network For Kaiser Permanente Insurance
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.
Details about Children (Ages 1–9)
Young children between the ages of 1 and 9 experience big feelings, often before they have the words to explain them. Emotional and behavioral challenges at this age can show up as frequent tantrums, sleep issues, separation anxiety, defiance, clinginess, trouble focusing, or developmental delays. These signs may stem from stress, family changes, trauma, sensory sensitivities, or simply difficulty navigating the world around them. Early childhood mental health support can help families better understand what’s behind a child’s behavior and provide nurturing tools to support healthy emotional development.
Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use compassionate, age-appropriate approaches to support children and their families. Many work through play therapy, which helps children express themselves through play when words are hard to find. Depending on the child’s needs, providers may also incorporate behavioral therapy, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or mindfulness-based practices. Some therapists work closely with parents to provide parenting support or family sessions. If you’re new to therapy, ask about how the provider involves parents and caregivers in the process, it’s a key part of successful treatment for this age group.
You can find therapists for children across the Greater Denver Area, with appointments available both in person and through secure online therapy anywhere in Colorado. Every provider is in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept a wide range of other major insurance plans. We make it easier for families to get the help they need, when and where it works for them.
