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.

Stress is a normal part of life, but when it becomes overwhelming or constant, it can take a serious toll on your mental and physical well-being. Chronic stress may show up as irritability, anxiety, fatigue, sleep disturbances, difficulty concentrating, or physical symptoms like headaches and muscle tension. It often stems from juggling multiple responsibilities at work, home, or school, and can affect people of all ages and backgrounds. Left unmanaged, stress can impact relationships, job performance, and overall quality of life.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care help clients build personalized strategies to better manage stress and reclaim a sense of control. Evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions are often used to identify triggers, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Therapy may also include relaxation techniques, boundary-setting, and emotion regulation tools. If you’re exploring stress management support, you might ask your therapist about their approach to mind-body techniques or goal-setting for long-term balance.

You can access therapy for stress management both in person at convenient locations throughout the Greater Denver Area and via secure online sessions available anywhere in Colorado. All therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept additional major insurance plans. No matter your situation, compassionate and practical support is available to help you feel more grounded and empowered in daily life.

Later adulthood often involves meaningful changes like retirement, physical health shifts, caregiving roles, or the loss of loved ones. These transitions can stir up feelings of grief, loneliness, anxiety, or even depression. At the same time, older adults bring decades of wisdom, experience, and insight to the therapeutic process. Many seek therapy not just for emotional pain, but for personal reflection, greater life satisfaction, or support in facing the uncertainties that aging can bring.

Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, our therapists offer compassionate, individualized care designed for older adults. Sessions may include life review techniques, coping strategies for chronic illness, grief counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), or simply a safe space to talk through current struggles. Providers often integrate family input when helpful, while respecting the autonomy and voice of the senior client throughout the therapeutic journey.

Older adults in Colorado can access care at Westside through local offices in the Greater Denver Area or from the comfort of home via HIPAA-compliant virtual sessions. All therapists are contracted with Kaiser Permanente, and many participate with other major insurance carriers. Whether you’re seeking emotional support, adjustment counseling, or a space for reflection, Westside is committed to helping seniors maintain mental wellness and live with purpose and peace of mind.
