Ask about sliding scale places. I live in small-town America and there are free health clinics in every county in the area. They have psychiatrists and/or psychiatric nurses. Maybe if you have information on hand, you can convince her to give it a try.
Thanks for being such a good friend.

That's a good idea. I've talked to her about counseling in general, but maybe if I make sure she has all that information available she'll be more likely to pursue it.
