More than a third of Americans who stopped going to therapy this year cited money — including secondary costs like childcare and transportation — and insurance coverage as the cause, according to a recent survey conducted by Verywell Mind. 

"For many people, it's the increased costs. The gas money to go to therapy is now higher," says Amy Morin, editor in chief of Verywell Mind and licensed psychotherapist, "People have to pay more for babysitters, so they can go see a therapist. And then of course, a lot of therapists are raising their rates given the rise in inflation, too."
