Thank you. IMHO there are a lot of not-great therapists out there. Yes, I think it’s like finding the right romantic partner and as you wrote, needle in the haystack. Also, IMHO, therapists trained in cognitive behavior therapy (especially TEAM-CBT based on Dr. David Burns's work) get right to the heart of things and don’t waste people’s time. The idea is to help/heal a patient in just a few sessions. I have been going longer for maintenance, but it’s been life-changing. Good luck finding your perfect fit!
