Below clinicians share in no particular order what you can do if you can t afford treatment. You can find group therapy and support groups using the resources above like 211 or samhsa or google around for ones near you. There are places where you can find free therapy. The first thing to do if you can t afford a therapy is to search for a training clinic near you.

Psychology students offer free therapy sessions and they are great because they are under the supervision of experienced therapists. If you have insurance ask your insurance plan to give you a list. When you cannot afford therapy look for help from community support groups that will be willing to support you. Live farther outside of yourself.

At other times too these community support groups can make contributions for you to consult a professional therapist if they cannot help you directly.
