Yes. Westside Behavioral Care accepts insurance from many major providers, including Aetna, Anthem/BCBS, Cigna/Evernorth, Humana, Kaiser Permanente, Medicare, Optum/United, and more. Our large network of licensed therapists offers individual, couples, family, and child therapy, making it easier to find care that fits your needs. Coverage varies depending on your specific plan, some sessions may be fully covered, while others may require a co-pay or deductible.

If you’d like to verify your benefits before your session, you can call your insurance company directly and ask about “outpatient mental health benefits with in-network contracted providers” to learn your copay amount and any session limits. If asked, you can let the support rep know that you plan to be seen for CPT Code 90791 (initial diagnostic evaluation) and 90837 (53+ minute psychotherapy session).

Yes. Westside Behavioral Care allows you to choose a therapist based on what matters most to you, whether that’s a specific specialty, insurance coverage, therapy style, location, or appointment availability. Many patients look for therapists with experience in areas like anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, relationship issues, or child and teen therapy.

You can browse therapist profiles on our website to learn more about each provider’s background, clinical approach, specialties, and whether they offer in-person or online therapy sessions. Filtering by insurance, location, age group, or specialty can help narrow down the options and make the process easier.

Finding the right therapist is personal, and it’s okay if the first match is not the perfect fit. A strong therapeutic relationship is one of the most important parts of successful therapy. If you feel like another provider may better match your needs or communication style, our team can help you explore other options within Westside Behavioral Care.

Westside Behavioral Care offers access to a large network of licensed mental health providers in Colorado, serving the Denver metro area and surrounding cities such as Aurora, Centennial, Lakewood, and Wheat Ridge through in-person and telehealth appointments. Our network includes Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs), Psychologists (PsyD/PhD), and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners (PMHNPs) who offer medication management.

Many of our providers have advanced training in evidence-based therapies for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship issues, and child and adolescent mental health. We prioritize personalized care by matching each patient with a provider based on their clinical needs, insurance plan (including Aetna, Anthem/BCBS, Cigna/Evernorth, Humana, Kaiser Permanente, Medicare, Optum/United), preferred visit type (in-person or virtual), and availability. Whether you’re seeking individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, or psychiatric services, our diverse team ensures that you receive care from a provider who best fits your situation and goals.

Westside Behavioral Care providers are considered in-network with the insurance companies listed on their individual profiles. In most cases, you do not need a referral to start therapy. Most patients can schedule an appointment directly with a therapist without first visiting a primary care doctor.

However, some insurance plans, particularly certain HMOs, may require prior authorization or a referral from a primary care provider before behavioral health services are covered. PPO plans and many commercial insurance plans typically allow patients to access therapy without a referral.

If you plan to use insurance to help cover the cost of therapy, it’s a good idea to verify your behavioral health benefits before your first appointment. Our team can also help answer questions about insurance coverage, referrals, and scheduling so you can get started as smoothly as possible.
