One barrier to getting mental health treatment can be cost. If you have good insurance, therapist and psychiatrist appointments could be as low as $10. But if you don't have insurance, paying out of pocket can be expensive.
Federally funded health centers can be a good resource for those without health insurance or with a limited budget. You pay what you can afford, based on your income. Below is a list of local St. Louis resources that can help if you are struggling to pay for mental health care, most of which operate on a sliding-scale fee system. You can get more information from NAMI St. Louis.
