“Your life can be more fulfilling"
-Justin Hecht |

For those new to therapy… If you’ve never seen a therapist before, you may feel confused by the jargon and by the process of evaluating a professional to provide a service you may not feel comfortable judging. I’d like to suggest that you use some of the same strategies that you might use to choose an architect or a general contractor: use both your head and your heart. |

Use your head by inquiring about education and credentials. Schooling and diplomas are important: you want to know that your therapist, in whom you’ll be investing a great deal, is an intelligent person capable of clear, rational thought. You also want to know that your therapist is a qualified professional, in good standing with legal authorities, and involved in a professional community. As with choosing any professional, a recommendation from a friend is very helpful.
