My son is in need of seeing a physiologist but has no insurance or job. Where can I search in the state of Ky for help?
If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

How old is your son? Kentucky does not have a very good Mental Health system so knowing the age would be very helpful. Depending on the county you live in, there are limited options open to you. If you are in the Louisville area there is Seven Counties and they will see you on a sliding scale. This covers Hardin, Breckinridge, Bullitt, Henry, Oldham, Jefferson and Shelby Counties. Out in the state there are other locations but without knowing exactly where you are I can only point you in a general direction (the state is divided into 7 regional mental health regions-you will need to contact the region that serves your area). Follow the link below for the state and find Community Mental Health centers. Select your county and see what is available in your area.
Contact KYCAN. This is a group of mental health consumers led by Doreen Mills, Ph.D. that actively advocate for mental health rights in Frankfort. They are based at Central State Hospital. They have a web site and may be able to put you in touch with someone who can assist you in your efforts.

I would start with the Department of Health and Human Services, which every state probably has (?). If they don't have info, (they probably do), maybe they can refer you to someone who does. Good luck.
