Mental Health:
Where to Go for Help:
Where you go for help will depend on who has the problem (an adult or child) and the nature of the problem and/or symptoms.
Often, the best place to start is your local mental health organization. |
You can get referrals from your family doctor, clergy, the Mental Health Association of Cattaraugus County, and Crisis centers. As you set out to get some help, consider asking for a few names. This way, you have more than one option, and can interview more than one person before choosing who is right for you.
Your insurance company can provide a list of providers who are in your plan.
Eligible veterans can get care through the U.S.Department of Veterans Affairs. For more information, go to www.va.gov/health or call 1-877-222-8387.
You can find affordable mental health services through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Visit http://mentalhealth.samhsa.gov/databases/ or call 1-877-726-4727.
Cattaraugus County Community Services provides free or low-cost treatment and services on a sliding scale. These services are state funded and are obligated to first serve individuals who meet “priority population criteria” as defined by the state Mental Health Department.
Your company’s employee assistance program (EAP) can issue a referral to a provider. Reach out to your Human Resources office to get more information about your company’s EAP.
