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.

Mindfulness concerns are often rooted in the difficulty of staying present in a fast-paced, overstimulating world. People who seek mindfulness therapy may experience racing thoughts, trouble focusing, sleep disturbances, or overwhelming emotions. These challenges can affect anyone, children, teens, and adults alike, and often appear alongside anxiety, depression, chronic stress, or unresolved trauma. Practicing mindfulness can help individuals slow down, become more aware of their internal experiences, and respond with greater clarity and compassion.

Westside Behavioral Care therapists integrate mindfulness techniques into treatment using approaches like Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based modalities. These therapies focus on helping clients observe their thoughts and feelings without judgment, stay grounded in the present, and develop healthier coping strategies. Therapy can support emotional regulation, reduce distress, improve self-awareness, and foster more meaningful connections with yourself and others.

We offer in-person sessions throughout the Greater Denver Area, including Arvada, Thornton, Lakewood, Denver, and Centennial, as well as secure online therapy for clients anywhere in Colorado. All of our providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many accept additional major insurance plans. Whether you’re exploring mindfulness for stress relief or seeking support with a deeper concern, our experienced therapists are here to help you begin your journey.
