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.

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.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps people heal from the emotional wounds caused by trauma, distressing memories, or deeply rooted negative beliefs. It’s often used to treat symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but it can also benefit individuals coping with anxiety, panic attacks, grief, and childhood abuse. People struggling with EMDR-related concerns might find themselves reliving painful experiences, avoiding triggers, feeling emotionally numb, or overwhelmed by fear and shame. These symptoms can affect relationships, work, and overall quality of life, but healing is absolutely possible.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use EMDR to help clients safely process painful memories and reduce their emotional charge. This approach involves structured sets of guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation while recalling traumatic experiences, which helps the brain reprocess them in a healthier way. EMDR is often integrated with other effective treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness practices to support long-term healing. If you’re considering therapy for trauma or past emotional wounds, you may want to ask if EMDR is a good fit for your specific goals. Many clients report significant progress, even after other approaches haven’t worked.

You can access EMDR therapy with ease through Westside Behavioral Care. We offer appointments both in person at convenient locations throughout the Greater Denver Area and via secure online therapy across all of Colorado. All of our providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept a range of other major insurance plans. Whether you’re just beginning your healing journey or looking for a new approach, our network of experienced therapists is here to support you.

Emerging adulthood brings new freedoms and new stressors. Between college, career choices, evolving friendships, financial independence, and navigating personal identity, this stage can feel both exciting and overwhelming. Many young adults face challenges with anxiety, depression, life direction, relationship struggles, or lingering effects of childhood trauma. Others are simply seeking personal growth and emotional clarity as they begin defining who they are and what they want for their future.

At Westside Behavioral Care, our therapists tailor sessions to meet the evolving needs of young adults in this unique life phase. Therapy might focus on emotional regulation, coping with uncertainty, building self-esteem, or managing stress from school or work. We use a range of proven approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), trauma-informed methods, and mindfulness-based interventions. The therapeutic relationship emphasizes respect, collaboration, and creating a space where clients can openly explore thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

Young adults can access therapy through Westside either in person throughout the Greater Denver Area or through secure online sessions from anywhere in Colorado. Our therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many are also contracted with other major insurance providers. Whether you’re starting college, entering the workforce, or working through personal transitions, our team is here to support your emotional well-being and long-term growth.
