Find Help

By John M. Grohol, Psy.D.

 

There are many different ways you can get help for a mental health concern. Psychotherapy is an important option to consider. You can quickly and easily find a good therapist through our Find a Therapist service.

You can begin searching or browsing for a new therapist to the right.

Most people are searching for a traditional psychotherapy relationship -- where you meet with your therapist once a week, face-to-face. They help you better understand your concerns and find solutions to reduce your symptoms.

Your insurance company will generally pay for most of the treatment of most mental health concerns if you see a therapist face-to-face (minus a small co-pay per session).


    

 

You can also talk to a professional counselor online or over the phone right now. However, you will have to pay for this service yourself (your insurance company will generally not reimburse you for this expense). I'd like to try to find a therapist who's available to chat right now instead.
