The campus treatment professional can help you research your options in your area and help you with the transitional process. just tell that person you would like their help in doing this and that treatment professional will help you.

Otherwise its open the phone book to psychiatry, psychology, counseling, marriage and family therapists, physcians by specialy, community servises, hot lines and crisis agencys and start dialing and asking if they have therapy professionals and an opening you would like to start researching your options and would like toschedule a consultation appointment to find out about that agencys protocals and othe questions you have. after you see a few decide which one is best suited to why you want to be in therapy and what you want to accomplish by seeing that person and what your goals are and if you think this person can help you to accomplish those goals.

Also family physicians are qualified to prescribe a full range of medications including psychotropic meds. so if you have not settled in on one psychiatrist by the time you graduate all you need to do is file a release of information form so your family physician can get your medication records from your mental health treatment provider and your family physician will be able to take over your medication needs for however long you need or want.
