Therapy has the potential to open up new doors for the courageous people who choose to walk through them. However, finding the right therapist can often be a challenging and daunting experience. It’s hard to open up to someone you don’t know, but a feeling of trust and non-judgment are cornerstones for a good therapeutic alliance. A good question to ask yourself is “Do I think that eventually this is a person who I can tell everything to, no matter how embarrassed or ashamed I am of my feelings?" If the answer is yes, then chances are this is a “good fit.”
