ToggleDon’t forget to consider your personal preferences like expertise relevant to concerns (e.g. addiction, depression, etc.), and potential barriers such as gender, race, and financial constraints when exploring the therapy available.
Choosing someone who understands your cultural background and lived experiences is also beneficial, as this enhances the therapy’s effectiveness that therapy provides. With virtual therapy, you have the convenience to connect with a therapist at any time, making it a versatile option among online therapy options.
Most therapists also have websites where you can learn about their therapy approach and professional ethics to help you gauge if they’re the right fit for your needs. With online therapy sessions, you have the ability to engage with therapy in a way that is more conducive to your lifestyle.
The best therapists are ‘authentic chameleons’ – they adapt to how you communicate and help weave a relationship as therapy goes on. They’re open to feedback and eager to tailor the experience to you.
Different therapy approaches mean therapists might act differently, but they should always be working with you in a way that feels right to you. When starting, share your hopes and worries openly.
Your therapist is there to guide you to your own solutions – not give them to you – the more they get you, the better they can help.
