Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in the Greater Denver Area and Across Colorado – Accepting New Clients
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective tools for addressing a wide range of mental health challenges. Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use CBT to help clients recognize and reframe unhelpful thought patterns, reduce emotional distress, and build healthier coping strategies.
Common concerns treated with CBT include anxiety, depression, phobias, obsessive thoughts, and negative self-image. CBT is practical and solution-focused, offering structure and measurable progress for individuals looking to make lasting change.
CBT is appropriate for children, teens, and adults, and it can be used for both short-term goals and long-term emotional growth. Westside’s licensed therapists work collaboratively with each client to tailor sessions for specific needs, whether it’s challenging irrational beliefs or learning skills for emotional regulation. Appointments are available in person across the greater Denver area, including Aurora, Lakewood, Boulder, Arvada, and Littleton, or online from anywhere in Colorado. All therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept other insurance plans. You can browse available therapists by specialty, insurance, location, and age to find the right fit for your needs. Call (303) 986-4197 or email info@westsidebehavioral.com for personal assistance scheduling your first session.
