How
to choose a therapist
Many
people know they need help and are unable to find the right health care
provider. If you use this guide you may find a better "match"
in your psychotherapist or other counseling professional.
Ask
lots of Questions
• Interview potential therapists by phone, many offer brief free
consultations.
• Ask about areas of interest in their practice, training and education.
• Ask about their availability as your health care provider, office
hours/days.
• How do they work to empower you?
Services Rendered
Experience and
Credentials are a must in Psychotherapy.
• Look for someone who is responsive to your
concerns. This is imperative if you are to receive true service.
• Pick a professional who will work with you as a coach, helper
and in your native language.
Fees
Ask what fees you will pay and determine what value
you can expect to receive.
Be honest
Voice your major concerns and above all else, participate in your own
personal destiny.
