A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭
Chico, CA

I found this website which gives people in california 12 free therapy sessions online. It says everythings free and ive never heard of it. Has anyone tried it? Or does anyone have suggestsions for free online counseling/ therapy etc like this? I want to start getting help and feel more comfortable doing this online

I am getting mental health counciling on the phone with a therapist given freely by my medicare insurance. Today was our first session and she really taught me some deep breathing / relaxation exercises which God knows I needed because I was feeling totally helpless, worthless and just wanted to go to sleep permanently. Ask your primary doctor or call your insurance company and see what resources are available to u. I hope u find the help u need.

@A MyDepressionTeam Member I would be VERY skeptical about that. 12 free sessions? That's a lot of $. If you contact www.nami.org and put in your state - it will tell you where the local office is. They can provide you information on Mental Health. It's a national organization but each state has a satelite office. Ask them what they suggest. They also have a number you can call. Check it out. Best of luck to you.
