Is anyone else really in need of therapy right now but not able to afford it

Even with my insurance, my co-pay is still $90 per session which I think is really expensive. I was having a lot of really good improvement in exposure therapy but now I just can't book any more sessions because I can't afford the payments. I'm only 19 by the way, so please don't be too harsh on me, like is there any better alternatives that you guys have found because I found it extremely helpful and now I just can't afford the sessions

We ALL feel ur pain. Its not fair😔 So many of us adults can not afford it so dont feel bad at all ..its not ur fault. I also had to stop Therapy as well for same reason its very hard i know. All u can do is research and read on ur own. Read OCD books, online techniques/info and utube can be helpful for doin ERP on ur own. U can also have family or friends learn this and practice with you. Not exactly same as professional of course but its better then nothing at all. Write down everything u were taught from therapy and continue the process ....u can do it👍👍

You might find benefits from Nathan Peterson’s videos. I love them!! He is a licensed therapist, and I think he has over a hundred really helpful videos that talk about different themes and how to apply ERP. It’s like a person could almost get the equivalent of therapy just from watching the videos. Here’s a video that gives an overview of what treatment should look like and also has links in the description to videos for different themes: https://youtu.be/3vy6-bveenQ?si=MurQBLRfhj1DcMW9

Been looking into private therapy as I'm on such a long waiting list for it through the NHS. This women got back to me and said she charges £48 a session and that will rise to £54 a session in September! I would ideally like to have 2 sessions a month at least but no way can I afford that ? Especially with being out of work now ?

Just typical isn't it. Finally find a private psychotherapist who I believe Could really help me in this battle to overcome my harm ocd, they even said they are very used to treating this particular type of ocd with success, and I just can't afford it £70 a session I told them I can't afford it they don't offer discounts but were willing to do it for £65, I still can't afford it. Feel so stuck. Suppose I'll just have to continue in my search

Affording Therapy

Hi Guys, I was wondering if anyone has advice for affording NOCD therapy? I’m from the UK so cannot get this service on insurance and the therapy is costing me A LOT of money. I’ve contacted the billing team who have put me on a payment plan but this doesn’t make it any cheaper. They can’t do anything else for me to help so I’m stuck - I’m not in the right place to stop therapy but I also just cannot keep paying this money for it. Help!!
