3 Therapy Resources to Check Out! (Based on $)

Hi everyone!

Below are the 5 cheapest therapy companies & resources I could find, so you don’t have to.

LGBTQ+ therapy is an interesting conversation. Many therapists who work with LGBTQ+ kids have specific training experience that allows for them to best help those in the LGBTQ+ community. The fact that these therapists exist is a significant accomplishment, but most of these therapists are either too stretched thin or charge high rates simply because there are not enough of them.

Even though these resources are available, there are a lot of LGBTQ+ individuals (especially those who are adolescents or children) who face systemic financial burdens that inhibit them from benefiting from these resources. Sometimes insurance can cover this therapy, or at least bring the cost down, but many have to pay out of pocket. Most people don’t have $200-300 to spare on one therapy session which doesn’t guarantee overall improvement.

Yet, even with this acknowledgment, it’s good to be aware of the resources that are available so we can all truly understand where to improve.
