How to find the right psychiatrist in Colorado

When choosing a psychiatrist in Colorado, it's best to reflect on what you’re looking for and ask yourself which of the following criteria are most important to you: Do they accept your insurance? Do you need a psychiatrist who specializes in a specific mental health concern such as depression, anxiety, or trauma? Are you looking for someone to work with you individually? Or are you looking for someone to support you as a couple or family? Would you be more comfortable partnering with a psychiatrist of a certain race, gender expression, sexual orientation, religious, or cultural background?

Can I use my insurance?

Yes! Psychiatrists on the Rula platform are in-network with most major insurance plans. Rula patients typically pay $15 per session, although your individual cost may vary based on your insurance benefits and deductible. We’ll work with your insurance to confirm your estimated per-session cost before your first appointment. Ready to get started? Click here to browse available psychiatrists who accept your insurance.

“If a client told me they often cry when they feel overwhelmed, even if they can’t pinpoint a specific reason, I’d explore whether anxiety might be the cause. Feeling like your emotions build up until they spill over is tough, but you don’t have to manage it alone. There are ways to find relief and support.”

“Many people believe that anxiety is just a personality flaw or a sign of weakness. In reality, it's a legitimate mental health condition that can be effectively treated.”

– randy Chalmers, LPC

“If anxiety seems random, try noting what happened just before — who you were with, how you felt, and if you overrode any personal boundaries. Often, hidden triggers come from subtle discomforts or internal conflicts that aren't obvious in the moment. Therapy can be a powerful space to explore these patterns, helping you build awareness and respond with more clarity and self-compassion.”
