Everyone can be helped by counseling at some point, or many points, in her life. Usually we first go when there is a crisis, and we are just totally overwhelmed. I went after my brother died, and my employer suggested a local grief counseling agency. That was very kind of him, and it helped me get through a time when I was in emotional shock.
Therapy can be expensive. My practice offers sliding scale fees based on income. Some people are blessed to have insurance that will pay. For others, the thought of a fee for counseling is daunting. Any counselor is ethically obligated to help you find an affordable option, even if that means going to another agency.
Please don't be afraid to reach out because of financial challenges. Our mental and emotional health is just as important as our physical health. In fact, they are all interconnected.
