I tried getting help. Rejected by 3 therapists because I was not their target demographic, another called me three times after reading my ‘here’s why I’m seeking therapy’ notes to make sure I wasn’t a threat to myself or others before backing out, and the therapist I did end up seeing thought it would be a good idea to double bill the guy with ‘paranoia’ as one of his listed items. Didn’t walk the charges back until I stopped payment and appointments ‘until this is resolved.’ …and yes, I realize I may be the problem, that is part of the reason I sought therapy… But at this point, there are no non-‘christian councilor’ therapists for males with ADHD in my area that my insurance will pay for.
Possiblity #1: Something that worked through my insurance is Brightside, a service that is similar to Better Help but more guided by HIPPA and they take insurance. I had a crisis and was connected to a psychiatrist and therapist which worked super well for me to have it scheduled easily with my ADHD.
Possibility #2: Psychology Today’s therapist search also had a filter for things like insurance accepted, location, online only sessions, and religious belief and LGBT friendliness. It has also worked well for me to find therapists in the past.
I hope you find a way to talk to a therapist soon! It has helped me tremendously.
As a psychedelic-assisted therapist… why not both?
Yes, but for insurance billing purposes, one’s shaman must first possess a graduate degree from an accredited university and a license from the state in which they intend to practice. And they’re going to need one psych nurse practitioner for every three patients because someone might have a bad trip. But in a group it’s only $7900 each!
It do be like that 😤
Psy…duck?
