HOW TO FIND THE BEST THERAPIST FOR YOU

Narrow Down by Insurance

If you plan to use your insurance, begin by narrowing down your options to therapists who accept your insurance plan. Unless you’re willing to pay out of pocket, ruling out therapists who do not accept your insurance will save you frustration later on. The most popular insurance companies in the Denver Area are Anthem Blue Cross, Cigna, Kaiser Permanente, and Optum (United).

Find a Therapist Near You

The truth is that therapy must also be easily accessible to be effective long-term. If your therapist’s office requires a lengthy commute, chances are you’ll find yourself rescheduling appointments often. Our therapists have convenient locations in Denver and surrounding areas such as Golden, Lakewood, Aurora, Westminster, Greenwood Village, Wheat Ridge, Highlands Ranch, Boulder, and Littleton.

Therapist Specialties are Important

Therapists must undergo various trainings before assisting clients with specific issues, concerns, and goals. Working with a therapist who has received the training necessary to help you is critical. The most popular specialties among our therapists are marriage therapy, grief counseling, family counseling, anxiety, depression, EMDR, panic attacks, couples counseling, child therapy, adolescent therapy, …

Consider Online Therapy

If you are having difficulty finding a therapist near you who accepts your insurance and specialization you seek, online therapy may be a great option for you! The sessions happen over your phone or computer and are powered by HIPAA compliant security standards. Online therapy sessions are covered by most plans.

Use our Contact Form

Appointment help is available through the contact forms throughout our website. We typically respond on the same day to recommend a therapist or prescriber who can help.

We Accept Insurance

We have nearly 300 therapists in Denver and numerous surrounding areas who accept many insurance plans, including Kaiser, Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Cigna, Humana, Optum (United), Medicaid, and Kaiser-Medicare.

As a therapist I enjoy my experience with Westside. The referrals are good and I especially like not having to deal with insurance companies. Westside takes care of all the billing hassles. Thank you!

My patient needed an individual therapy session ASAP. The online scheduling system worked great. There was someone who accepted her insurance, specialized in her problem areas, was close to where she lived and worked, had appointments available the same day.

Hi Tom, Just wanted to let you know I spoke with Leigh from L & H and directed her to the WBC website. She also mentioned referring a patient on Friday who was SO happy to get an appointment right away! She said she refers a lot of her patients to Westside.

Jen

We are so pleased you guys could help us out to find someone to see our son. Between me and my ex-husband we called over 30 therapists on our in-network lists and either no one called us back or were not accepting new patients! So thank you!
