When selecting a therapist, prioritize finding someone whose approach and availability align with your family's needs and schedule.
Look for therapists who are transparent about their qualifications, experience, and treatment approach from your first conversation. Verify that they maintain current licensure and are willing to discuss their credentials openly.

A reputable therapist will provide a written summary of their services and fees and maintain professional boundaries.
