[Question - Insurance] Need to see psychologist or psychiatrist - have Medi-Cal

I have Medi-Cal (which I am going to go into the county offices tomorrow to renew otherwise it'll expire at the end of this month), and I want to see a psychologist or psychiatrist. I'm a young college student, so I don't really know how this works.

The plan I got auto-enrolled in was with UnitedHealthcare (community plan). On my UHC card, it lists my Primary Care Provider as a local county health services building. I called, and although I can technically see one, it would likely take 2-3 months which is way too long. (They want me to first see a general doctor, which isn't available until this time next month, then wait 2 weeks for a referral, then schedule an appointment with one of their psychologists/psychiatrists which again could take a month or more from scheduling. Obviously this isn't the forum for medical advice, but due to recent events my emotions are not in a good place and thus I need to see a psychologist or psychiatrist sooner than 3 months.

What can I do. Do I have to switch my Primary care Provider within UHC? Or do I select a different insurance provider under medical? Just need to see doctor asap.
