Call the phone number listed and tell the agency that you’re a student at Hunter, and would like to make an intake appointment for counseling. They will ask you about your insurance. If you have insurance, be sure to have your insurance card with you, so they can verify your coverage. If you don’t have insurance, ask them about whether they offer a sliding scale for people who are uninsured.

Each clinic has a different specialty in terms of community they serve and services that are offered, as well as insurances accepted. Pick a clinic that is convenient for you to get to, either from Hunter or from your house, and call to see if they have openings.
