I have insurance through my job but the deductible is $6000. Essentially, I do not have insurance and would have to pay out of pocket. I don't qualify for public assistance. For that reason, I cannot afford to get professional help. I make do with resources like this, journaling, intermittent mindfulness practice and staying aware of what's going on between my ears. I've been struggling to keep my head above water the last few weeks. Searched for local psychologist today but the cost is not affordable. $110-$150 for a visit.
