Choosing a Therapist
Qualifications
Look at their degree (for example, MA, MSW, PhD) and whether they belong to a regulatory body that enforces ethics and ongoing training (such as R. Psych or RCC). Remember, more letters after their name doesn't necessarily mean they have better qualifications.
Specialized Training
Ensure they have training in the area you need, like working with children, couples, or specific issues, such as anxiety, neurodiversity, grief, and more.
Clear Expectations
Your therapist should explain their mental wellness services clearly in writing, including their billing procedures, insurance coverage, cancellation policy, and communication methods.
Comfort & Fit
Feeling comfortable with your therapist is crucial. Finding a therapist who is the right fit is a significant predictor of therapy satisfaction.
