033: How to Find the Right Therapist (Orientation to Therapy Series)

Many people are confused with how to find the right therapist. As a therapist myself, I've been disappointed by all those who just come to me because they want generic therapy and don't care about my training or specialities. It's frustrating (and draining) for me as the clinician, and if it's not a good match, it's disappointing for you, too, making you wonder if you have a "bad" therapist. Each therapist is different! It can be really helpful to find out what your therapist specializes in (perinatal, depression, nutrition, substance abuse, etc.), what their personal philosophy is like (holistic or allopathic?), or whether you feel like you "click" with them.This episode is all about how to find the right therapist. There are several things you can do to get yourself (and therapists) a better experience! And there are a couple things to watch out for if you have a poor match.This is the second episode in a series for "Orientation to Therapy."
