I found a complete telehealth behavioral health resource through my insurance company website. It includes psychiatry, therapy and neurological testing. I suggest checking there first, if you haven’t already.

Otherwise, Psychology Today is a great resource that will mention if the dr is taking new patients, insurance types, and if they work on a sliding scale.

For YEARS I paid out of pocket for therapy/med management because the options through my insurance were such shit. Drs know this, and will often work on a sliding scale to help out when paying out of pocket. I had one dr that would literally tell me to keep my money for the next appointment. There are drs who just want to help.

Best of luck with all of this!!

Now if only people could actually get the meds they are prescribed. These constant shortages are exhausting.

That said, RICBT is good though they likely have a waitlist.

They really are! I haven’t been affected yet but I’m sure it’s only a matter of time.
