For many, the most difficult part about therapy is admitting there is a need for it. The second most difficult thing is finding a therapist.
Elissa Hurand is a family therapist in Seattle, Washington. She has a very active and successful practice, but she is also quick to make recommendations for anyone looking for a new or replacement therapist.
The number one thing she recommends when it comes to finding a therapist is being ready to ask the serious questions.
Hurand said, “there is very little that a therapist has not heard before and are bound by a very strict ethical code. What you share with the therapist is kept confidential and shared only with professionals and with patient permission.”
This means looking at two to three different therapists to find one that has the approach and personality that matches with the potential client. Outside of the personal questions, it is also a good idea to find out about whether or not the therapist accepts insurance, their specialties and pricing.
Hurand for her part has a special offering for new clients.
“I offer a free 15 minute consultation with all prospective clients. This gives both of us a chance to determine if we will be a good fit for one another. This is key to successful therapy,” continued Hurand, speaking as a Seattle anxiety therapist.
