Ex girlfriend wants to see a therapist but doesn't have insurance?

Question

My ex wants to see a therapist about some issues. The only problem is she doesn't have any insurance. Where can I find a therapist to send her to that she can afford without insurance? She can't afford like $300 an hour. Any ideas? She also doesn't want to go to a religious councilor because some of the issues are sexual.

Answer 1

I've used students at the Local University who are studying counseling or other courses.  They are supervised by professors and do a good job in most cases.  The cost is also a fraction of what you a therapist would cost.  

A religious counselor  might surprise you concerning sexual issues don't overlook this valuable resource.  Pastors normally don't charge for counseling either.

Answer 2

What's the hang-up about talking to a religious counselor re: matters intimate?  If they're hanging out their shingle as a counselor, s*x is a an important topic in most folks lives.

Is she employed?  Many companies these days have an Employee Assistance Program that includes some number of free visits to a counselor/therapist.

Another option is a counselor who's a Licensed Social Worker.  Yeah, I know that sounds odd, but the licensing requirements and costs in some states are ridiculous so many people get a degree and a license to do Social Work, and that enables them to do counseling.

$300/hour is a bit much for counseling services.  Sounds like Beverly Hills psychiatrist fees to me.

Call your local social services to get that information.  Some only charge 10.00 per visit.
