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.

Therapists serving the Littleton area provide care across neighborhoods such as Ken Caryl, Grant Ranch, Columbine, Bow Mar, Stony Creek, and Governor’s Ranch. Those living near Chatfield State Park, Southwest Plaza, or the Broadway corridor have access to both in-person therapy and virtual counseling options tailored to their lifestyle and location.

Whether you’re navigating a recent life change or managing long-term emotional health, Littleton providers support a range of concerns including PTSD, panic attacks, stress, depression, grief, and family dynamics. Many also specialize in therapy for adolescents, blended families, and couples facing communication or trust issues.

Most therapists in the Littleton network accept Kaiser Permanente along with other major insurance plans. Clients can explore providers based on schedule availability, session format, area of focus, and coverage, making it easy to find a therapist aligned with your goals.

Low self-esteem can shape the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. It often shows up as persistent self-doubt, harsh inner criticism, or a sense of not being “good enough.” People struggling with self-esteem might avoid challenges, feel undeserving of love or success, or constantly compare themselves to others. These feelings can affect anyone, including children, teens, and adults alike, and may stem from past trauma, critical environments, social pressures, or difficult life experiences. Over time, low self-worth can hold people back from fully participating in life or reaching their goals.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care support clients in building lasting self-confidence through evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and strengths-based therapy. These methods help individuals challenge negative thought patterns, develop self-compassion, and reconnect with their values and strengths. Therapy may include goal setting, mindfulness practices, and tools to build resilience and assertiveness. If you’re starting therapy for self-esteem concerns, consider asking your therapist about their experience helping clients rebuild self-worth and which approach they use for personal empowerment.

Getting help shouldn’t be difficult. Westside offers both in-person therapy across the Greater Denver Area and secure online therapy anywhere in Colorado. All our providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many accept other major insurance plans as well. We’re here to make access to compassionate, quality care as easy and affordable as possible, so you can take the next step with confidence.

Young children between the ages of 1 and 9 are going through a time of incredible emotional, social, and cognitive growth. As they develop language, form friendships, and learn about the world around them, they may also experience anxiety, behavioral struggles, emotional outbursts, sleep issues, or difficulty adjusting to changes at home or school. Life events like divorce, loss, trauma, or moves can be especially confusing and overwhelming at this stage. With the right support, these early years offer powerful opportunities for building resilience, self-confidence, and emotional understanding.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care offer warm, developmentally appropriate therapy that meets young children where they are. Many use play therapy, expressive arts, and story-based approaches to help children express feelings in nonverbal ways. Sessions often include parent involvement, parent-child interaction therapy, and family guidance to ensure consistent support at home. Our therapists are skilled at making sessions feel safe, engaging, and collaborative, using evidence-based techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and behavior-focused coaching. Every child is unique and therapy is personalized to match their temperament, needs, and the concerns of their caregivers.

Westside offers flexible, accessible care for young children both in person throughout the Greater Denver Area and via secure telehealth anywhere in Colorado. Our licensed therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept other major insurance plans. Whether you’re looking for early intervention, emotional support, or parenting strategies, our team is here to help your child and family thrive right from the start.
