*photo by Abby Ruppert Find a good nurse to recommend a good physician and then ask the doc to recommend the best psychologists in town. Online directories such as Psychology Today and The National Register can be helpful tools in ruling out counselors and therapists based on self reported areas of treatment, background data and techniques. Just be aware that most psychologists and counselors check the same identical six categories of treatment in those directories. Making it near impossible to make a choice. If you don’t like your therapist or they can’t give you a reasonable plan or time frame for treatment - change therapists. The choice is entirely yours.
Author’s Note: Check out the book, Strategies for Mental Wellness, a complete compilation of my fifty five years as a clinical/sports psychologist.
