I've been wanting to see a psychiatrist or psychologist for a while now. I'm 17 and I have Kaiser health coverage. I'm not exaclty sure what's included in our plan, though.
Are the therapists at Kaiser helpful? Or would it be best for me to go to a private therapist? Would Kaiser cover any portion of that? Are there specific hours that the psychologists at Kaiser are available? And how do I go about asking my parents about going to therapy without having to tell them everything?
Ah, typical teen stuff. Sorry for the cliche but any answers will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Well, you could just tell them you'd like someone to talk to about your problems. That'd probably work. We had Kaiser a long time ago. Their mental health coverage is very good. Paid for all my therapy (that wasn't covered by the courts) and allowed my mom to lock me in the nuthouse. =:0) So yeah, I'd say they're probably also good for VOLUNTARY therapy, sure. |
