A collective of American therapists that charge $30-70 per session plus a one time membership fee of $65 to support the organization
full disclosure: I am a counselor in their directory
Highly recommend. I found my therapist there 5 years ago and she’s amazing
Two months? Ha. Ahaha. Hahahahaha
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
THREE YEARS.
They haven't found me a FUCKING psychiatrist to prescribe my meds for
THREE.
FUCKING.
YEARS.
Waiting list. After waiting list. After waiting list. Kicking the can down the road...! Ghosted over and over again! AND YOU KNOW ADHD IS GREEEEEAAAAAAT FOR FUCKING WAITING AND FOLLOWING UP Y'KNOW??? RIGHT???
God FUCKING dammit.
Then you finally get your meds and RFKJr throws you in a concentration camp for your mental illness.
I am not fucking going to el salvador. But I might just go straight to hell. Hopefully I'll drag some fascists down there with me.
My experience so far is the psychiatrist is the easy part (if you have a formal diagnosis already); had a psychiatrist appointment in under two weeks after trying to schedule one but they couldn't prescribe anything without the formal diagnosis (they outright said i would probably benefit from medication) :/
They gave me a referral to a psychologist for testing; that appointment took over two months, and I'm... not happy about it. Didn't really go anywhere and now I'm looking again.
✨ America 🌈
Just in case anyone from Ontario is reading, there are websites of therapists taking appointments, organized by accreditation.
Prices are also much cheaper than $500, but they are mostly over $150 per session.
I'm in America and my therapist is $150 per session before insurance kicks in.
