Mental Health Professionals
If you need help now, here is a list of
CRISIS SUPPORT RESOURCES.
We can not make recommendations for therapists, but there are several listed below who have worked with our families. Based on our own experiences, it’s not one size fits all when it comes to mental health providers. It’s sometimes necessary to try a few different providers until you find one that feels like a good fit. Many therapists offer a free brief initial consultation (usually 15-20 minutes) to help you determine if they're a good fit. This allows you to get a feel for their communication style, personality, and approach to therapy. It's a chance to ask questions about their experience, areas of expertise, and how they would approach your specific needs. Most health insurance plans also have coverage for mental health services, but check to see who is covered under your plan.
“Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you - doesn’t mean you can, should, or need to do it alone.”
