Finding the right therapist is essential to unlocking all of the benefits of therapy. Here is a great article from our blog on How to Find the Right Therapist for you.
In order to experience the full benefit of therapy, we ask that you give your current provider a chance—it may take some time to get to know them. If you still feel your provider is not a good fit, we want to make sure you get the best possible care by being able to switch to a new provider when you feel it's necessary.
