Wait lists are unfortunately quite long in most places. A lot of this is dependent on insurance but here are some ideas:

  • If you have MassHealth, you can search here for In-home Therapy (IHT), which tends to have a shorter wait list: https://www.mabhaccess.com/Search.aspx
  • If you do not have MassHealth, try searching on PsychologyToday.com
  • Some places that accept MassHealth and various other insurance plans, and tend to have somewhat shorter wait lists, are Enlightened Interventions and REVIDAS.
  • You can try the Open Sky Rapid Response Hub. They will do an initial assessment of your child and meet for a couple sessions. Then they will refer them to another agency for ongoing therapy if needed. https://www.openskycs.org/services/rapid-response-hub.html
  • If your child is having a mental health crisis, call Youth Mobile Crisis at 866-549-2142
