It can be hard to find the right therapist. When looking for a therapist consider all aspects of their professionalism, including their website, education, experience, as well as their word tone and choice. Once you feel comfortable with who they are on paper, reach out and speak to them. A good fit also has to feel right. Consider that therapy is almost always uncomfortable the first session or two because you are meeting a stranger. As you move forward with sessions the relationship should feel more comfortable and a balance between both parties exists. Make sure to find a therapist who fits well with what you are looking for, but also consider the growth you are making.
Hello and thank you for considering me to be your therapist.
Each therapist has their own style in therapy. Consider the goals you have for yourself in therapy and make sure you are meeting those goals. Communicate what you are looking for in therapy with the therapist you are considering. This will help you both determine whether the relationship is a good fit.
