[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 132914"] I would start by asking your primary care physician for a referral to a therapist. The types of issues you want to work on and the type of struggles, if any, you currently facing will determine the type of therapy that is preformed. Sometimes you just need someone to unload to, who is objective yet validating and can help you put things into perspective. Or you might find that you need help with rethinking how you react/respond to things and the therapist might tailor a therapy such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) for that. There are many, many different kinds of therapies out there and you and your therapist will determine what is best for you. Keep in mind that a therapist might be perfect for one person and terrible for another. If you don't click, don't be afraid to find another therapist. Most therapists, in my experience, will give you some names of other therapists for you to try. For example, one therapist I had I genuinely liked as a person, but we didn't click for therapeutic reasons. I tend to be very direct and she didn't know how to respond to that; it made her very uncomfortable. Good luck to you. [/QUOTE]
