Figuring out where to start with mental health care can feel overwhelming — especially if cost is a worry. MHA of Greater Houston removes two of the biggest obstacles: knowing who to call and being able to afford it. Their team vets providers for cultural competence and trauma-informed care, so you can feel confident in who you're connecting with.
Three free services are available. First, an online provider search lets you filter by insurance, language, and zip code to find low- or no-cost local options. Second, the Care Connect Helpline pairs you with a bilingual resource specialist who will personally match you with a provider, coach you on self-advocacy, and follow up to make sure the connection worked. Third, a free therapy program may cover up to six sessions with a licensed provider or a supervised graduate student if you qualify.
