Counseling Services in the Community

• There are many private practitioners (psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, and counselors) in the community, and they are listed in the yellow pages. Almost all of them take insurance, but you will need to check to be certain that your health insurance will be honored.

• If you are covered by a parent’s or partner’s health insurance, you may be able to use the mental health benefits provided by that particular plan. You will need to call that specific insurance company for details.
