Thanks for the article-I’ll pass it along to one of my family members. Her insurance is Medicaid-which means that she has a new therapist and psychiatrist every other month as the only mental health professionals she is able to see are in training cycles.

She has bipolar disorder. I don’t see how it is helpful to have new doctors who want to change her drugs each time and then new therapists. How in the world are you supposed to benefit from therapy when as soon as you start buildng trust, and as soon as the therapist starts learning about you, you are then switched to someone else?
