Telehealth therapy for Lakewood residents with Aetna, Cigna or UnitedHealthcare/Optum, or as a self-pay client.

Telehealth therapy for Lakewood residents with Aetna, Cigna or UnitedHealthcare/Optum, or as a self-pay client.
There is no Rocky Mountain Thrive building in Lakewood, because we offer therapy through secure video only. You connect from a home near the foothills, a flat along Colfax or a parked car on your break, as long as the place is private and in Colorado.
We are in-network with Aetna, Cigna and UnitedHealthcare/Optum. Private pay is available as well. Medicaid in Jefferson County is handled by a region we do not contract with.
Sessions by video, from wherever you are in Colorado.
Aetna, Cigna and UnitedHealthcare/Optum, verified in advance.
Jefferson County is in Region 3, which we are not in-network with.
Lakewood is the most populous city in Jefferson County and a short drive from Denver, so many residents hold coverage through employers across the metro. We accept Aetna, Cigna and UnitedHealthcare/Optum, and we verify your plan, telehealth benefits and expected cost before your first session.
Looking to pay directly? The Fees & Insurance page describes private pay and the superbill option for out-of-network benefits.
Jefferson County belongs to Region 3, where the state lists Colorado Community Health Alliance (CCHA) as the regional organization. We are not in-network with CCHA.
For Medicaid we hold contracts only with Rocky Mountain Health Plans (Region 1) and Northeast Health Partners (Region 2). If you rely on Medicaid, you can call Health First Colorado Enrollment at 1-888-367-6557 to ask about providers in Jefferson County. They can also explain how plan assignment works.
Lakewood is part of the Denver metro area, so a commute can mean US-6, Colfax, Wadsworth or I-70 at the wrong hour. A weeknight session by video takes the drive out and lets you stay close to dinner, homework or a quiet evening.
Parents of teens sometimes start with teen therapy, and adults often look into anxiety therapy or LGBTQ+ therapy. You can browse clinician profiles for age groups and focus areas.
Complete the intake form with your plan details and a few preferred times. We verify your benefits, share what we find and confirm an appointment, usually inside a day or two. Please finish intake paperwork two days before the first visit.
List a couple of times that could work, since a few options make it easier to find a match. A good session setup is simple: a quiet room, a stable connection and a few minutes beforehand to settle in. If you must cancel, give more than 24 hours of notice and we will not charge a late fee. If you work from home in a place with thin walls, earbuds and a closed door can help you feel more private.
If you are in crisis or thinking about suicide, call or text 988. Rocky Mountain Thrive is not an emergency service.
Jefferson Center for Mental Health is the community mental health center for Jefferson County, and Jefferson County Human Services can help with benefits applications. Both pair well with online therapy.
Complete the online intake and we will verify your benefits.
Please review our financial policies carefully before your first appointment
We require all insurance information (both primary and secondary) to be uploaded as part of your appointment request. We verify benefits before confirming scheduling to ensure we accurately understand your coverage and can match you with the best-fit therapist for your needs.
We do require a credit card on file for all clients. The requirement is in case your insurance lapses we have a means to charge for the session. For commercial plans, we will charge the card on file if you have a co-pay.
Appointments canceled within 24 hours or missed without notice will incur the full session fee. More than two late cancellations or no-shows within a six-month period may result in termination of care, as consistent attendance is essential for providing ethical and medically necessary treatment.
