I thought therapy was covered by your insurance plan (you posted the plan information on a thread once)? Assuming it's covered, then the remaining issue would be transportation, in which case you would need to find a therapist accessible by public transport.
If your insurance changed and will no longer pay for therapy, maybe the school counseling service can refer you to low-cost or free therapy and somewhere reachable by public transport (I assume your transportation issues are because you don't have a car?). Even though they cannot help you, I suspect they would feel responsible for referring you to a place that can and that you have access to. If nothing else, they'd have liability on their hands. Please give it a try! 
Also, I don't know how tight money is with your father, but do you think he might be willing to give you the necessary money for therapy if he knew what you're going through? It sounds like he has helped you get services before (back home) and I would just think he'd want to help you given the situation you're in. You wouldn't have to give him details, necessarily, just that you're in a very bad place, potentially unsafe, and need help.
