Jahnte’s story: Finding courage to ask for help
When he was struggling, Jahnte Sowell reached out for mental health support. What he found with Kaiser Permanente was more than a psychiatrist. He found an advocate who understood exactly what he was going through and was determined to help him thrive.
Better care from a connected team
We offer many options for you to access mental health care — no referral needed.
Here you’ll receive care from a team that conducts initial screenings for mental health concerns. If treatment is needed, they’ll outline short-term recommendations while coordinating the next phase of your care with one of our expert mental health specialists.
Every moment counts when it comes to your mental health. Through Online Chat, video visits, phone advice, email with your provider, and more, you’re connected to the support you need to be your healthiest.
Better care through cutting-edge research
Kaiser Permanente is always searching for ways to improve the health and well-being of not just our members, but the communities we serve. Through the Kaiser Permanente Colorado Institute for Health Research and studies done with the National Institute of Mental Health and other organizations, our Behavioral Health team is examining new ways to prevent suicide, find a safer approach for the use of antipsychotic drugs in youth, to prevent recurrent depression in pregnant women, and more.
