In need of Counseling in Georgia t he at is CD friendly

[Scott Highlander]

I am new here, but I am in need of help my life has been turned upside down. I went on Psychology Today website looking for a psychologist for help that was LGBT+ friendly and everyone I found is not taking new patients or are out of network. So I have been receiving CDH emails for a while and today I read Cynthia’s story , then I read “The future begins with us”, I thought that she was talking about my daughter (she is 13, she knows I CD and supports me). God gave her so much Grace that I could feel it even before she was born that’s why her name is Leigha Grace. Ok back to me, so I am on here now asking for help my world is crumbling away around me and I am so lost. If you know of someone out there that can help please let me know, I can’t let my failures destroy my daughter chance to shine in this world

Hi Scott,

Welcome to CDH.  I’m not from Georgia and the other posts offer great suggestions.  You might also try this resource:

Coincidentally, I just watched a video on YouTube yesterday about the worst states for behavior health and substance abuse care. Unfortunately, Georgia is pretty high up on that list.

The video does offer resources to contact. In Georgia, you can visit this page to find your local field office and phones numbers to call. https://dbhdd.georgia.gov/regional-field-offices

I do not know what you will find, but I wish you luck. Take care of that little girl of yours. And yourself.

I don’t live near you so can’t make a recommendation.  But I think you should be able to find someone if you contact your local LGBTQ support organization.  They will almost surely have a list of good providers.
