Denver Mental Health and Counseling
Overview
Trauma-informed outpatient substance use and co-occurring mental health treatment for adults. An intensive outpatient program (IOP) and regular outpatient sessions are offered. Care plans include individual and group therapy, along with family therapy sessions when desired. Evidence-based approaches are blended with 12-step facilitation, and medications for addiction treatment (MAT) can be prescribed when needed to help ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Once clients finish treatment, they have access to an alumni program to stay connected to peers and community recovery resources. Denver Mental Health and Counseling accepts private insurance and self-pay.

Flexible outpatient programs
Outpatient care can be a good fit for clients who need to balance treatment with responsibilities such as work, school, or taking care of family. When enrolled in the IOP, clients attend sessions several times per week while living at home or in sober housing. Regular outpatient sessions are held less frequently and offer maximum flexibility. In both levels of care, clients meet with doctors, therapists, and psychiatrists to address various clinical needs.
Substance use and mental health support
The center treats substance use and co-occurring mental health simultaneously, recognizing that the relationship between the two is often tightly intertwined. Clients can receive psychiatric assistance with conditions including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, personality disorders, or ADHD. Counseling for trauma, including PTSD, is also available.
Evidence-based therapies
Therapists guide clients through proven therapeutic approaches during individual and group sessions. These include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), motivational interviewing (MI), solution-focused therapy, and trauma-focused eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).
Step-down options
Some clients begin their recovery in outpatient programs, while others may step down from residential treatment or partial hospitalization (PHP). Those who finish IOP can step down to regular outpatient sessions at the same location for seamless continuity of care. Those who find they need higher levels of care can be connected to other facilities within the parent company, Recovery Village’s, network.

How we research treatment facilities
Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.
Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:
- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.
- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.
- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.
- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.
Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.
How we evaluate treatment facilities
These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.
Important disclaimer
We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
