Try EBTCS (evidence based treatment center of seattle) they have a huge staff, so you can usually find someone to see pretty quickly. I've been going there for almost two years, and I can't recommend the people there enough. [ebtseattle.com](http://ebtseattle.com/)

If you are a lady, [Seattle Therapy Alliance](http://seattletherapyalliance.com/) is a good resource.

I have a good economical recommendation who has done sliding scale rates in the past, who is an all-around wonderful person. PM me for info. She works out of Cap Hill/West Seattle, and could work you in very soon. She does private practice as well as non-profit work for children.

I see Janet Edlefsen, she is in Bryant but the building she works in is dedicated to mental health professionals. A good therapist has made all the difference for me and I definitely love Janet.

I can't recommend a specific therapist because I don't know your specific needs, but I can say that I got to see a therapist and fast by contacting someone who seemed to study things relevant to my needs on this website: http://depts.washington.edu/cshrb/newweb/faculty.html. It's UW psych faculty. The person I emailed had no openings in her clinical practice but was able to refer me to a similar colleague, and I got in really quickly (I think two weeks). I do, however, see someone in the University District. But it may be worth emailing someone on that list just for better advice on how to see a therapist than what we commoners on Reddit can offer.

http://www.therapyreferral.org/index.php - Women's Therapy Referral Service (which is a bit of a misnomer. The therapists are women, but the clients are whoever needs help). They set you up with 3 trial appointments with three therapists and you get to see which one suits you. They have a ton of MHPs, and you can tell them you are looking for someone in _____ area. No problem.

If you go to this link to [Find a therapist](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists) you can refine and sort by specialty, location, insurance, etc! I know several people who’ve found their therapists there. :)

I’m so proud of you, and as others have said 211 is a fantastic resource. There is so much good in you this person can no longer try to take.

Indiana Wesleyan University is a Intech Park - 71 st Street and 465 on the west side. They have a graduate student counseling program that runs on a sliding scale, with $20 at the high end. Yes it's a Christian school but I have NEVER had my counselor say anything about religion since I made it very clear that I'm an atheist. There are some limitations on the issues they will handle but it doesn't hurt to check. 317-713-6154

The Rape, abuse, Incest National Network, or [RAINN](https://www.rainn.org) has a list of doctors that you can call and access.

A good friend of mine runs Sunstone Health & Wellness: [http://www.sunstoneindy.com/](http://www.sunstoneindy.com/) I'm not sure if they specifically cater to your case, but even if they don't, I guarantee they can recommend someone who does. They have a pretty good network of other therapists in the Indy area that they refer to.
happy_green_inchworm replied:
If you have a good relationship with a primary care physician, most of them will have some established referral relationships with local therapists that they recommend. Can be a simple way to find a good therapist. You might look for someone who specializes in trauma... that specialty usually encompasses domestic abuse. Also, make sure to check that they will be in-network on your insurance if you are hoping to use that to cover the costs. Congratulations on taking that first difficult step!
Can anyone recommend an affordable lgbt-friendly therapist who is either in the nyc area or who would be willing to do teletherapy?

Psychology Today magazine is where I found my therapist [here](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/lesbian/ny/new-york?sid=5 d48 fb8 b8 d9 f8)
tinylez replied:
LGBT-friendly as in specializes with queer issues and topics, or as in comfortable with discussing them? I may have a recommendation for you in NYC, but he also does teletherapy if necessary. I can message you if you're okay with that?
Any recommendations for a therapist in Austin Texas? No special focus

The Lauterstein Conway Massage School is in Austin, TX. David Lauterstein received teacher of the year from the AMTA in 2012 and takes clients. I had a client who visited Austin and got a session from David. I'm sure you could contact the school for options. Here is the website http://www.tlcschool.com/

HunnyyBearR replied:
Psychology Today was recommended to me when I was searching for one. You can type in your zip code and then filter by issue, insurance, etc. Also check into your work to see if they offer an E.A.P (employee assistance program) where they can search for you and then they allow up to 3 visits free (virtual might have a different rule) so that you can try out the therapist or counselor without wasting money on it. Best of luck!
Grumbilious replied:
Most insurance plans are required to cover virtual sessions right now. Psychology Today is a good place to look. Find someone who looks like a good fit, and see if they’re available. A lot of folks are pretty full right now, so you may need to contact a few people to find a spot.
