Waste of time trying to seek help here. I was referred by another counseling professional, who specifically recommend two Krist Samaritan counselors for my particular weirdnesses. In order to spare both Krist Samaritan and myself from wasting time, I sent an email (I have some powerful telephone-related phobias, BTW), stating that I wanted to know whether either of the two recommended counselors were accepting new patients and, if so, could I use my BCBS Health Select coverage. I was delighted when I received a reply shortly thereafter, instructing me to call to schedule an appointment. I called (not an easy task for me) and, although the woman who answered was very personable and tried to assist, the end result was that NEITHER of the recommended counselors is accepting new patients (a question that I had specifically asked in my email). In addition, she regretted to inform me that they have NO counselors currently accepting new patients who are BCBS Health Select eligible. Thanks for nothing, Krist Samaritan! You ve managed to simply increase my anxieties and send me back in search of someone who might actually help me.
