Details about Children (Ages 1–9)

Young children between the ages of 1 and 9 experience big feelings, often before they have the words to explain them. Emotional and behavioral challenges at this age can show up as frequent tantrums, sleep issues, separation anxiety, defiance, clinginess, trouble focusing, or developmental delays. These signs may stem from stress, family changes, trauma, sensory sensitivities, or simply difficulty navigating the world around them. Early childhood mental health support can help families better understand what’s behind a child’s behavior and provide nurturing tools to support healthy emotional development.

 

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use compassionate, age-appropriate approaches to support children and their families. Many work through play therapy, which helps children express themselves through play when words are hard to find. Depending on the child’s needs, providers may also incorporate behavioral therapy, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or mindfulness-based practices. Some therapists work closely with parents to provide parenting support or family sessions. If you’re new to therapy, ask about how the provider involves parents and caregivers in the process, it’s a key part of successful treatment for this age group.

 

You can find therapists for children across the Greater Denver Area, with appointments available both in person and through secure online therapy anywhere in Colorado. Every provider is in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept a wide range of other major insurance plans. We make it easier for families to get the help they need, when and where it works for them.

Working with Children

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.
