Once you have a list of potential therapists, you can start to narrow it down by considering the following factors:
Specialty: Does the therapist specialize in the type of issues you are facing? For example, if you are struggling with anxiety, you may want to find a therapist who specializes in anxiety treatment.
Approach: What type of therapy approach does the therapist use? There are many different types of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and interpersonal therapy. It is important to find a therapist whose approach you feel comfortable with.
Personality: It is important to find a therapist that you feel comfortable talking to. You should feel like you can be honest and open with them.
