More people are in therapy than ever, but starting in March, Blue Cross Blue Shield will stop covering some private-practice counselors, and thousands of Michiganders could lose the therapist they see now. Blue Cross says it's protecting patients by paying only for care from fully licensed clinicians.
Therapist David Sniderman joins Robyn Vincent to explain who stands to lose access — especially rural and low-income patients — and to make the case that what heals people most isn't the method, it's the trust between a therapist and client.
