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.

Lakewood-area therapists provide care throughout neighborhoods including Green Mountain, Applewood, Belmar, Bear Creek, Eiber, Westgate, and Kendrick Lake. In-person sessions are available near major landmarks such as the Denver Federal Center, Belmar Park, and along Kipling or Wadsworth, with online therapy accessible statewide.

Providers support individuals, couples, and families dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, grief, stress, and relationship conflict. Services are available for a wide range of life stages and emotional needs, from early adulthood through family transitions and beyond.

Most Lakewood therapists accept Kaiser Permanente and other well-known insurance plans. Clients can select a provider based on session format, clinical focus, schedule flexibility, and insurance coverage to find the best therapeutic match.

Relationship challenges can affect nearly every part of your life, from emotional wellbeing to work performance to physical health. You might find yourself repeating the same painful dynamics, struggling with trust or communication, or feeling overly dependent, or overly distant, from others. These patterns can develop from early experiences, traumatic relationships, or unclear boundaries, and they may lead to feelings of loneliness, anxiety, guilt, or confusion. Whether these issues are showing up in family, friendships, or romantic contexts, you deserve support.

Westside Behavioral Care offers compassionate therapy for individuals looking to improve their relationship patterns. Our licensed therapists use effective, evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, and attachment-based therapy to help you understand your history, regulate emotions, and develop healthier relational strategies. Therapy may include skill-building for boundary-setting, emotional resilience, or conflict resolution, depending on your goals. Our therapists work at your pace, offering validation and practical guidance as you work toward more connected, secure relationships.

We offer in-person therapy at offices throughout the Greater Denver Area, including Boulder, Centennial, Broomfield, Lakewood, and Greenwood Village, 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.
