Finding a
good
therapist
Just as every patient has different needs, therapists have different methods of therapy. Here are a few helpful hints in finding a therapist that works for you:
-
Research the therapist to find out what type of therapy they offer. The internet has several websites listing a therapist’s credentials and methods. You can also call the clinic ahead of time for this information.
-
Make sure the therapist’s schedule works with your schedule. Do they have emergency hours? Are they available face-to-face, online, or both?
-
Is the therapist knowledgeable in the area you need? While every therapist is knowledgeable in all areas of mental health, some focus on specific areas such as anxiety disorders or PTSD.
-
Give it time. Don’t ditch a therapist after one session. Relationships take some time to build. Effective therapy doesn’t happen overnight.
