Denver Wellness Associates - Lakewood

The Denver Wellness Associates Lakewood office brings psychiatric care, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), Spravato, ketamine-assisted therapy, genetic testing, ADHD testing, and counseling together for patients of all ages. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants treat anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and insomnia, from an office near West Colfax Avenue and Garrison Street with plenty of parking, open Monday through Thursday and Friday until noon.

Find Relief When Medication Falls Short

TMS treats depression that has not improved with medication, with 15 to 20 minute sessions each weekday for 6 to 8 weeks. Spravato and ketamine-assisted therapy help patients change the channel on unwanted thoughts in cases of treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Sessions run about two hours in the office, with monitoring throughout and a designated driver required.

Match Medication to Individual Biology

Genetic testing with GeneSight uses a cheek swab to show how a patient's body processes psychiatric medications, with results back in about two days. The first visit lasts 55 minutes to review physical and mental health history and goals, and follow-ups come about every three months once symptoms are stable. Visits happen in person or by telehealth, and ADHD screening takes under an hour.

Add Counseling to Medical Care

A licensed social worker and a counselor candidate offer therapy for children, teens, adults, and families, using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and play-based methods. Clinicians also support perinatal and postpartum patients, LGBTQ+ patients, and neurodivergent youth and adults, including those with autism. The office can also connect patients with outside therapists when needed.
