Family Counseling

Family Counseling Therapists in the Greater Denver Area and Across Colorado – Accepting New Clients

Families can face a range of emotional and relational challenges. Sometimes the challenges slowly build over time, other times emerging after major life changes like divorce, grief, blended family transitions, or parenting struggles. These difficulties may lead to frequent arguments, emotional disconnection, or ongoing stress that affects each family member in different ways. Family counseling can be especially helpful when one member’s mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, or substance use, impact the entire family system. Whether you’re dealing with communication breakdowns, sibling rivalry, or difficulty adjusting to changes, therapy offers a space to begin healing together.

Family counseling can help improve communication, foster emotional safety, and rebuild trust between members. Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use a variety of evidence-based approaches tailored to each family’s needs, including family systems therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), parenting support, and conflict resolution strategies. Sessions may involve parents, children, siblings, or extended family depending on the situation. The goal is to create a healthier, more connected home environment where each member feels seen and supported. Many families also find therapy useful for learning practical tools to manage stress, navigate transitions, and prevent future conflict.

 

Appointments are available in person across the Greater Denver Area, including Aurora, Lakewood, Arvada, Boulder, and Littleton, or through secure online therapy statewide. All of our 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.
