My friend and colleague Michel Fitos shared an informative article from last year about finding a therapist. Though focused on marginalized communities, it is good advice for all.

Three quick takeaways regarding finding a therapist:

1. Shop! You can see more than one before you decide.
2. Advocate! You have no obligation to stay with any therapist let alone one who marginalizes you.
3. Refer! If you find a good therapist, tell other people so that they can benefit, too, and seek referrals from friends.
