A young woman talks with a counselor in a bright office.

How to choose

The most important thing is a good fit: someone you feel comfortable with. It is normal to try more than one person.

  • Kind of help. Talk therapy, medication, or both. See kinds of care.
  • Cost. Do they take your insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare? Do they offer a sliding scale?
  • Format. In person, by video, or by phone.
  • Experience. With what you are going through, your age group, or your culture and language.
  • Availability. Are they taking new clients, and how long is the wait?

Questions to ask

  • Are you taking new clients? How soon could I start?
  • Do you take my insurance? What will I pay per visit?
  • Do you have experience with what I am dealing with?
  • Do you offer video visits?
  • What happens in the first session?
