Interviewing a Therapist
You are welcome to interview either or both of us for as many as three separate hours without charge. It's not a therapy session, but a chance for you to evaluate us. It's essential that you are confident in the quality and compassion of your therapist, whether you've been referred to them or not. We'll answer questions about our training, background, life experiences, opinions about social and political matters - whatever is important to you and will help you reach an informed decision about selecting a therapist. It is well worth it to hire the best therapist you can find. Many people wonder, How can lay person like me possibly evaluate a therapist?
For one thing, you've been sizing people up your entire life, whether it be prospective friends, workmates, or contractors; have some faith in your judgment! Also, therapy needn't be a mystery: therapists worth their salt should be able to explain, clearly and without jargon, how their therapy works.We are great believers in straight talk, and treating the people who come to us with respect for their intelligence.
