What Happens if Your Parents Can’t Pay for a Psychologist?

Question by personyesIam: What happens if your parents can’t pay for a psychologist?
My mum always tells me I need to get mental help..but all she does is ask for group therapy and then my dad doensn’t turn up and we just talk about why he isn’t there.
My mum won’t get me a psychologist because she says its too expensive..but she has one T__T
I am severly depressed as I have attempted suicide I am pretty sure I have an eating disorder..which I blame on my mothers abuse when taking drugs and alcohol…
Is there any other free help? Besides kids helpline because they basically just repeat back to you what you said to try and “undersand”.
