How to choose the right therapist

Research consistently shows that the most important factor in successful therapy is the relationship between the therapist and the client. It is the quality of this relationship, rather than the specific type of therapy, that makes the greatest difference. For this reason, it is worth taking the time to find the right therapist to work with.

You are welcome to speak with several therapists before deciding who feels like the best fit. An initial session offers an opportunity to learn more about the therapist, experience their way of working, and notice how comfortable you feel with them. After this first meeting, you can reflect on whether they feel right for you. There is no rush, you may choose to have several initial sessions before making your decision. Finding the right therapist truly makes all the difference.
