FAQs and Details for Kaiser Members

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.

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.

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 Panic Disorder and Anxiety Attacks

Panic disorder often emerges with little warning and may be accompanied by intense physical sensations like shortness of breath, chest tightness, trembling, or nausea. Many people describe a feeling of detachment from reality or a fear of losing control during an attack. Over time, the unpredictability of these episodes can lead to anticipatory anxiety, avoidance behaviors, or even depression. Panic disorder can affect individuals from all walks of life and often co-occurs with generalized anxiety or agoraphobia.

 

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care specialize in helping clients break the cycle of fear through evidence-based treatments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a cornerstone of care, helping individuals understand the connection between thoughts, behaviors, and physiological responses. Exposure therapy, mindfulness practices, and DBT skills may also be introduced to build emotional regulation and reduce the intensity and frequency of attacks. For some, EMDR or ACT offers additional support in working through trauma-linked panic responses. Our therapists collaborate with you to create a plan that fits your needs, pace, and goals.

 

We offer in-person therapy at offices throughout the Greater Denver Area, including Boulder, Highlands Ranch, Lakewood, Golden, and Arvada, 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.

Working with Adults

Adulthood often brings a complex mix of responsibilities, expectations, and internal challenges. Career shifts, family demands, health concerns, grief, and evolving personal identities can all contribute to emotional strain. Adults in this age group may experience anxiety, burnout, depression, or difficulty maintaining healthy relationships. Even those who appear to be functioning well on the surface may benefit from a space to process emotions, gain perspective, and build healthier coping mechanisms.

 

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, our therapists collaborate with adult clients to create a treatment plan that fits their lifestyle, values, and goals. Evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and trauma-informed care are often used. Therapy may involve exploring personal patterns, working through long-standing emotional blocks, improving communication skills, or managing ongoing stressors with greater resilience and self-awareness.

 

Adults across Colorado can connect with Westside therapists either in person at locations throughout the Denver metro area or virtually through secure online sessions. All providers are contracted with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept additional insurance networks. Whether you’re seeking short-term support during a life change or long-term mental health care, Westside offers accessible, professional therapy designed to help adults navigate life with greater clarity and emotional strength.
