Cherry 73, and others who are finding it difficult to find a therapist,
Have you tried contacting a local University with a Masters Program for training therapists? Candidates have to complete usually around 3,000 hours for their licenses. I believe that they cannot charge for these services, or there is a sliding scale fee.

Does your local area have a Health Care Agency? If you call your local Dept. of Health, they may be able to connect you to state or county programs that offer counseling, groups, wellness centers, club-houses, or other services. Sometimes churches have mental health groups. Is there a local DBSA in your area? That organization usually has weekly meetings. NAMI is another resource.

Keep trying to find services, even if it isn't with a therapist in private practice.
