Myth: “Therapy is just too expensive.” 💸
Let’s bust that.

Yes, therapy can be pricey, but there are way more options than many people realize. From using insurance or your HSA/FSA, to exploring sliding scale fees or EAP benefits through work, there are real, accessible ways to make therapy affordable.

In this video, one of our therapists, Davin, is walking you through options that might be available to you or someone you know. Mental health support shouldn’t feel out of reach.

Save this for yourself or send it to a friend who’s been putting off therapy because of cost.

Mental health and liberation go hand in hand: We are greatly influenced by our environment, our experiences, and our ability to live freely and safely as our full selves.

As we reflect on this day, may we continue to celebrate Black joy, amplify Black voices, and advocate for systems that support true healing and freedom for all. 🖤❤️💚
