This post really highlights one of the scariest problems we have. I had such similar experiences with therapists. I too get so angry thinking about it. My child needed therapy and we were told multiple times there were year long wait lists. Just unacceptable when someone needs help at that time. I was also told the best therapist are those that don’t take insurance. So glad you are writing this.

What a beautifully vulnerable sharing of your experience moving through our very challenging mental health system (or lack thereof) in this country. You know I’ve been through this system first hand and am now watching as Jordan is trained to be a therapist. I’ve so intrigued by this process because I’ve seen the good, the bad, the ugly and wonder how there can be such a chasm between them. Thank you for sharing so transparently as imho this is where our system starts to heal.
