But most people don't know that there are different types of mental health providers. They don't know what questions to ask. They don't even know they're ALLOWED to ask questions.So let's change that.Think of this as a friend-to-friend chat from someone who happens to be a therapist. I'm breaking down the different types of mental health providers, giving you questions to ask, and giving you full permission to shop around until you find the right fit.In this mini-episode, we're covering:The difference between psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists (LCSW, LPC, LMHC)What counselors do vs. licensed therapistsThe important distinction between "Christian counselors" and "therapists who are Christian"Why therapists specialize (and why that matters for YOU)Specific questions to ask when you're considering a therapistPermission to shop around - not all therapists are the right fit, and that's okayNot all therapists are created equal.
