Abuse Survivors

Therapists for Abuse Survivors in the Greater Denver Area and Across Colorado – Accepting New Clients

Recovering from abuse can take time, support, and a safe therapeutic space. At Westside Behavioral Care, our therapists work with survivors of physical, emotional, sexual, and verbal abuse to process trauma, rebuild self-worth, and develop healthy boundaries.

 

We understand how difficult it can be to open up about these experiences, and our goal is to help you feel empowered, not retraumatized. Whether your experience is recent or long in the past, therapy can support you in regaining a sense of safety, control, and trust.
