If you need mental health treatment, call the member services phone number on the back of your insurance card about where to be seen for care. When in doubt, call your child’s pediatrician for a referral. If uninsured, there are resources for low cost care noted above with F & V. Should the need arise for emergency mental health care (one’s condition could result in immediate danger to someone’s health or life), consider your local emergency room for urgent care.

Please be aware that this list only includes some of the resources available in the Capital District, and we do not prefer or endorse any of the persons or groups listed. We are not compensated for any referrals and are only aware of these places because they have assisted other people from our district in the past. We highly recommend that you first check with your insurance carrier to determine what benefits you may be eligible for and of any restrictions on who the service provider may be.
