Hi Springreen, I assume you are in the States? If you are completely self supporting, meaning neither your parents nor anyone else can count you as a dependent on their taxes, and if your only income is part-time, then it is a good bet you could qualify for Medicaid. It is worth checking out. The school counselor ought to be able to steer you in the right direction to apply for it and attest to your diagnosis and need for further counseling. It might take a month after you apply to know whether you qualify, and then you might be required to switch to a different mental health provider. You also might want to just google Medicaid and your state to find a toll-free number for your questions, and quite possibly an online application. Good luck!
