Yes, I can make an appt with another pdoc. My therapist had to facilitate that when my current pdoc wouldn't see me during that 6 month wait. However, she had to push for it herself. I couldn't make that request myself (believe me, I tried).

And no, I do not have a psych urgent care center nearby. There are a bunch of hospitals with psych units, but none of them have psych urgent care. You're pretty much stuck with IP or regular pdoc appt. No in between as far as I'm aware. I think there is an IOP program, but they are like 40 mins away and I don't think I need IOP.
