Introducing Our SHIFT Access to Care Program

The SHIFT Access to Care Program Provides Free Therapy for Individuals With Financial Barriers

The SHIFT Access to Care Program bridges the gap in mental health services by offering free therapy with participating clinicians for those experiencing financial barriers—such as being uninsured, underinsured, or burdened by high copays or deductibles.

Services are provided based on clinician availability to ensure clients receive timely, quality care. At SHIFT Your Journey Mental Health Counseling, we offer virtual therapy for individuals, couples, and families across New York, Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Texas—making it easier to access support from the comfort of home. We’re committed to making mental health care accessible and inclusive. To learn more or apply, Request an Appointment Today.

    "So far my mental wellness journey has been going amazing. When I initially began I was at home with my baby. Then I started working part-time and now I have transitioned to full-time. I am grateful to have come across this agency so that I was able to connect with my SHIFT Therapist. Thank you again for creating a space for a black professional woman who wears many capes to feel embraced and seen.”
