Want to find a therapist for yourself? ⠀
⠀
➡️Search on
psychologytoday.com to look for a good fit within the private sector by your location and by your insurance — if you have mental health coverage. If you do not have insurance coverage, the website will also list therapists with sliding scale fees to help keep costs to a minimum.⠀
⠀
➡️Also, make sure to check to see if your insurance or your parents’ insurance has an EAP program. Typically an EAP will cover 5 counseling sessions each year per insurance holder and per dependent. Your EAP will let you know which providers are covered.⠀
⠀
➡️If you would rather, states also have community behavioral health centers with sliding fee scales! Most centers can be searched for online. Call the center and ask about their fees.⠀
⠀
➡️Another option if you are in school would be to look on your school’s website for counseling center or therapist hours!! Most schools and universities provide this service free of charge.⠀
