Westside Behavioral Care offers one of Colorado’s largest networks of mental health providers (LPCs, LCSWs, LMFTs, PsyD/PhDs, PMHNPs, etc) dedicated to Kaiser Permanente patients statewide. Established in 1998 with the mission of making appointment scheduling as easy and convenient as possible, Westside’s licensed therapists serve thousands of patients a year by providing supportive counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and more. Appointments are available through in-person sessions across the Denver metro area (Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Boulder, Arvada, etc.) and convenient online therapy statewide.

Thanks to our partnership with Kaiser, members can expect quick access to care (often in as little as 48 hours) without worrying about prior authorizations or referrals. Nearly all Westside therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, meaning you get the care you need at in-network rates. Our team will verify your benefits and share them with your therapist ahead of your first appointment so you’re fully informed going into your first session.

True to our mission, we make scheduling easy for everyone. You can choose your preferred therapist by using our scheduling tool available 24/7, call our friendly receptionists (available Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 5:00pm MST) at (303) 986-4197, complete one of the many contact forms on our website, or email info@westsidebehavioral.com for personal assistance. Our patient-focused approach is designed to give Kaiser members in Colorado a stress-free, positive experience.

Everyone feels angry at times, it’s a natural human emotion. But when anger feels overwhelming, comes on suddenly, or leads to regrettable words or actions, it can start to interfere with your daily life and relationships. Anger management challenges often show up as frequent irritability, explosive outbursts, difficulty calming down, or even physical symptoms like a racing heart or muscle tension. These patterns can affect people from all walks of life and may stem from unresolved stress, trauma, communication issues, or other underlying emotions like fear or sadness. Left unaddressed, anger can damage close relationships, create problems at work, or lead to a persistent sense of guilt or shame.

At Westside Behavioral Care, our therapists offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to help you understand what’s fueling your anger and how to manage it more effectively. Treatment often includes evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), which focus on identifying triggers, building emotional regulation skills, and learning healthier ways to express feelings. Some therapists may also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) or trauma-informed techniques if past experiences contribute to current anger responses. If you’re new to therapy, you might ask about practical tools for calming your body and mind in the heat of the moment. The goal isn’t to eliminate anger, it’s to regain control, reduce harm, and improve how you relate to yourself and others.

Therapists offering anger management support are available for in-person appointments at offices across the Greater Denver Area, as well as through secure online therapy for clients anywhere in Colorado. All providers at Westside Behavioral Care are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept additional major insurance plans. Reaching out for support is a powerful first step toward lasting change and we’re here to make that step easier.

The 10–12 age range is a meaningful time of transition as children begin preparing for adolescence. At this stage, they’re exploring independence, shaping their identity, and learning to manage more complex social dynamics and academic expectations. It’s common for children in this group to experience challenges like anxiety, peer conflict, school stress, emotional regulation difficulties, or family transitions such as divorce or relocation. This is also a key developmental window for building healthy communication skills and internal resilience before entering the teen years.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care create a safe, encouraging environment for children to talk about what’s on their minds and learn practical coping skills. Sessions may include child-led conversations, CBT strategies, problem-solving exercises, and tools for managing stress and emotion. Our providers often integrate family involvement and parent consultations to promote consistency and support outside of sessions. Every therapeutic relationship is tailored to the child’s personality and preferences, ensuring therapy feels comfortable, collaborative, and constructive.

Children ages 10–12 can access therapy through in-person appointments across the Greater Denver Area or through secure virtual sessions from anywhere in Colorado. Our child therapists are credentialed with Kaiser Permanente and many are in-network with additional major insurance providers. Whether you’re looking for emotional support, behavior-focused care, or early mental health intervention, Westside makes high-quality pediatric therapy convenient and approachable for families throughout Colorado.
