A. When looking for therapy in Scottsdale/Arizona/Oregon/Washington (or anywhere else, for that matter), two of the most important factors are as follows.
1) Experience in treating the condition you are dealing with. This is because you will want someone who has enough experience to know the best way to treat you.
2.) Compatibility with the therapist. If you are not comfortable with the therapist, you will have a more difficult time opening up to them. Which may make the treatment you are receiving less effective.
A. That’s something we can best figure out together and one of the primary reasons we offer a free consultation before the first session. We are proficient in many treatments, so we can effectively treat numerous conditions and different personality types. But the personal aspect is important too. And for that, we really need to see how we relate to each other. So if you are looking for a good counselor, give us a call and let’s talk!
