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.

Therapists in Westminster offer support throughout neighborhoods such as Shaw Heights, Sherrelwood, Legacy Ridge, Walnut Grove, Skyland Village, Northpark, and The Ranch.

Providers work with individuals navigating daily stress, emotional overwhelm, and major life events. Services cover a range of concerns such as anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, family dynamics, and relationship conflict, tailored to each client’s goals and stage of life.

Many therapists in the Westminster area are in-network with Kaiser Permanente and other major health plans. Clients can refine their search by area of specialty, appointment type, insurance participation, and availability to find a provider who offers the right fit.

OCD can show up in many different ways, from fears of germs and contamination to worries about harming others, forgetting something important, or breaking moral rules. Individuals may feel compelled to check, clean, count, or repeat behaviors to try to find relief from anxiety. These routines can become time-consuming and emotionally draining, impacting family life, work performance, or academic success. OCD often begins in childhood, adolescence, or early adulthood and affects people of all backgrounds.

At Westside Behavioral Care, therapists trained in treating OCD often use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a highly effective form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy that involves gradually facing fears without engaging in compulsions. Some therapists also incorporate ACT to help clients develop a new relationship with intrusive thoughts. Children and teens may benefit from specialized approaches like play therapy or parent involvement to reinforce progress at home. With consistent support and the right tools, many clients find meaningful relief and renewed confidence in their day-to-day lives.

We offer in-person therapy at offices throughout the Greater Denver Area, including Arvada, Englewood, Littleton, Boulder, and Wheat Ridge, as well as secure online sessions across Colorado. All Westside Behavioral Care providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also credentialed with other major insurance plans. Getting help should feel accessible, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Teenagers experience rapid growth, not only physically but emotionally and mentally, as they move toward adulthood. The teen years often involve major shifts in identity, peer relationships, academic pressure, and emotional regulation. Common concerns during this time include anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, social isolation, academic burnout, family conflict, and navigating gender or sexual identity. With the right tools and guidance, teens can learn to process their experiences and develop the confidence and emotional skills they need for adulthood.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care work collaboratively with teens to create a judgment-free space where they feel heard and understood. Treatment may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, mindfulness strategies, or solution-focused approaches depending on the teen’s needs and preferences. Our therapists are skilled at building trust, balancing autonomy with support, and involving parents or caregivers when helpful, all while prioritizing the teen’s voice in their care.

Westside provides therapy for teens ages 13–18 both in person at locations across the Greater Denver Area and online anywhere in Colorado. All therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many work with additional major insurance providers. Whether your teen needs support with daily stressors or more complex emotional challenges, Westside offers compassionate, accessible care to help them grow and thrive during these critical years.
