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. Convenient care options are available whether you live near Westminster City Park, along Sheridan Boulevard, or commute via I-25 or U.S. Highway 36.

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.

Emerging adulthood brings new freedoms and new stressors. Between college, career choices, evolving friendships, financial independence, and navigating personal identity, this stage can feel both exciting and overwhelming. Many young adults face challenges with anxiety, depression, life direction, relationship struggles, or lingering effects of childhood trauma. Others are simply seeking personal growth and emotional clarity as they begin defining who they are and what they want for their future.

At Westside Behavioral Care, our therapists tailor sessions to meet the evolving needs of young adults in this unique life phase. Therapy might focus on emotional regulation, coping with uncertainty, building self-esteem, or managing stress from school or work. We use a range of proven approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), trauma-informed methods, and mindfulness-based interventions. The therapeutic relationship emphasizes respect, collaboration, and creating a space where clients can openly explore thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

Young adults can access therapy through Westside either in person throughout the Greater Denver Area or through secure online sessions from anywhere in Colorado. Our therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also contracted with other major insurance providers. Whether you’re starting college, entering the workforce, or working through personal transitions, our team is here to support your emotional well-being and long-term growth.
