I'm with you. I've been searching for a therapist for literally years at this point Spent months and months (over a year at one place) on various agency waiting lists... only to be bumped off them because they finally had to admit that it was unlikely they would have any openings because of my insurance.

So I go to my PCP last summer and request a referral because I'm desperate and they claimed to have access to mental health providers... for the referral department to literally do nothing but say go to Sweetser... who literally fired their entire outpatient staff years ago due to LePage's cuts to Medicaid reimbursement.

It appears that the only 'resource' available now is Psychology Today... who is apparently not exactly particular about whom they allow to sign up for their listing. But at least it gets you some phone numbers to call to get on more lists.
