Finding a provider that is right for you

Finding a provider that meets your needs can be difficult. Here are some questions to ask when contacting a new mental health provider: 

• How long is your waiting list?

• Do I need to get primary care services from your organization to get mental or behavioral health services? 

• Are mental health appointments in person or held virtually?

• What does your fee or sliding scale look like for someone like me?

  • Do you accept my insurance? 

  • Do you accept individuals that don’t have insurance?

• What are your specialties? Do you tend to work with a specific population? Specific mental health diagnosis? Do you work with people like me?

General “Find Help” through NYC 988 where you can search by age group, population/program focus, payment options, and borough.

General “Find a Therapist” through Psychology Today where you can filter by several features including specialty, identity, insurance, format, etc.
