How Can I Find a Provider or Therapist?

If you have a primary care provider (PCP) or a reproductive health specialist, you could start by making an appointment with either one of them.
If you don’t have a PCP, you could ask your insurance company or reach out to your local health department for a list of PCPs in your area. Online search engines (ZocDoc, etc.) can also connect you with a provider. If you don’t have insurance, you can search for a free health clinic or community health center in your state.
To schedule an appointment with a therapist, you may need a referral from your primary care provider first, depending on your insurance. If you are unsure, you can check your benefits online or talk to an insurance representative. Be sure to ask what types of therapies are covered. If you don’t have private insurance, or are on Medicaid or Medicare, ask your provider if you need a referral.
Finding a general therapist: In many cases, you can search “therapists near me.” However, there are many resources available to help with the search as well. Psychology Today has a “find a therapist” function that allows you to look by zip code. You can also filter the results based on your insurance type, gender of the provider, type of therapy, age, price, and issues the therapists has expertise in.
Finding a sex therapist: You can go to AASECT’s online directory to find sex therapists near you. Your insurance provider may also have a list of covered therapists in your area.
