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.

Geriatric concerns encompass the emotional and mental health challenges that often arise later in life. Older adults may face grief after the loss of a spouse or friends, anxiety about declining health, or depression stemming from social isolation or reduced independence. Cognitive shifts, chronic illnesses, and role changes, such as transitioning from caregiver to care recipient, can also lead to emotional distress. These experiences are valid, and support is available.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care offer compassionate, age-informed care tailored to the needs of older adults. Common approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy (IPT), solution-focused therapy, and ACT. These treatments help with processing loss, reducing loneliness, managing chronic illness, and rebuilding purpose and joy. Whether someone is coping with major life transitions or seeking emotional clarity and peace of mind, therapy provides an empowering path forward.

Therapy for geriatric issues is available both in person throughout the Greater Denver Area, including Thornton, Broomfield, Westminster, Aurora, and Littleton, and statewide through secure online sessions. All Westside providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept other major insurance plans to ensure accessible care for individuals and families across Colorado.
