Parent Resources

Resources
This list is not comprehensive and is listed by area of expertise, then alphabetically by first name. I recommend starting with your health insurance provider to see what mental health coverage you have and if there are in-network providers, this will help with the cost of counseling. From there you can get a recommendation from your family doctor or use the list below and cross reference if any providers are on both lists.
