In-Network For Kaiser Permanente Insurance

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.

Details about Anxiety

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health challenges, affecting people across all age groups and backgrounds. While it’s a natural response to stress, clinical anxiety goes beyond occasional worry, it can feel constant, overwhelming, and hard to control. Symptoms may include excessive fear, racing thoughts, irritability, restlessness, sleep disturbances, physical tension, and avoidance of everyday situations. Some individuals experience specific types such as social anxiety, panic disorder, or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), each with its own unique challenges. Left untreated, anxiety can disrupt relationships, school or work performance, and overall quality of life, but effective, compassionate support is available.

 

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use a range of evidence-based approaches to help manage and reduce anxiety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely recommended treatments, focusing on identifying and reshaping thought patterns that fuel anxiety. Other common methods include mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), exposure therapy for phobias or social anxiety, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and relaxation or grounding techniques. Some providers may also incorporate journaling, psychoeducation, or guided breathing exercises into sessions. If you’re beginning therapy for anxiety, you might ask about CBT, mindfulness tools, or exposure strategies, your therapist can help tailor the approach to your goals, symptoms, and comfort level.

 

Appointments are available both in person across the Greater Denver Area and through secure online therapy anywhere in Colorado. All therapists are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept other major insurance plans.
