Therapists for Young Children (Ages 1–9) in the Greater Denver Area and Across Colorado – Accepting New Clients

Therapy can help young children make sense of big emotions, behavioral changes, or life transitions. Westside Behavioral Care offers therapists who specialize in early childhood mental health and development.

 

Read more about therapy for young children

Common reasons for seeking support include behavioral outbursts, frequent fears, difficulty adjusting to change, sleep or appetite issues, and trauma. Our therapists use age-appropriate, child-centered approaches like play therapy and parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT) to support emotional growth and healthy communication.

 

Appointments are available in person across the Greater Denver Area or online when clinically appropriate. All therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also credentialed with other insurance plans. You can browse available therapists by specialty, insurance, location, and age to find the right fit for your needs. You can also call us at (303) 986-4197 or email info@westsidebehavioral.com for personal assistance scheduling your first session.
