Primary care providers can help

Talk to your primary care provider (PCP) or your child’s PCP about emotional or mental health needs. They can do screenings and recommend treatments. They can also refer you to a behavioral health specialist, but you don’t need a referral. Just make sure the provider takes your plan’s insurance.
