I definitely understand that money can be tight. Try looking at Psychology Today; you can search therapists and counselors in your area. In my experience, I went to a bigger, well known therapist office as opposed to a private one. Private ones usually tend to cost more. Do you think you're insurance will cover part of the cost? They may be able to give you a small copay. I wouldn't recommend letting it heal by itself. I think you should check the first aid sticky at the top of the Self Harm forum. If you need stiches, I think you should get them. Health comes before money and I'd rather you be safe than have an infection. If it comes to the point where you can't get stitches, then keep the cut as clean as possible.
