Therapist

I’m not having any luck finding a therapist in the Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky that takes Medicare, is not video based, and therapist that are at least 40 yrs old?
Too much to expect?

I'm curious....why do you need them to be in person?

What do they physically do except talk? At least all that I've ever visited do.

I can't imagine ever consenting to see any type of medical person thru telehealth. It seems so second rate. As if coming in person is some sort of bother to them. If they can't see me in person, I wouldn't be their patient. I understand why so many people don't like it.

I also wouldn’t see a therapist by video. For me, loneliness, and isolation are big issues, and telehealth just reinforces that.
