When therapist and client are aligned, magic happens. Research shows that the alliance between therapist and client is one of the most important predictors of success in treatment. Good fit, better progress, great outcomes.

You will be talking about all sorts of things with your therapist – oftentimes, sensitive topics come up during therapy. You want to feel comfortable with the person you are opening up to, which is another reason why finding a good fit is so important

A good match depends on various factors including personality type, therapeutic style, and therapist’s focus and specialties. We learn about the issues you’d like to work on in therapy and match you with a therapist whose area of focus and specialty align with your needs. We also take into consideration your preferences and find a therapist whose style and personality might match with you.

Think of it like dating – sometimes you connect right away and other times, it takes a couple of dates to build that bond. After a couple meetings with your therapist, reflect on how connected you feel to your therapist and how comfortable you feel with them. Also ask yourself if it feels like you are progressing toward your goals. Feel free to check in with your therapist from time to time to discuss your therapeutic relationship – it can be an incredibly meaningful conversation!

Our team will work with you until we find the right therapist for you. We will take your feedback about the previous match and use that to further refine our therapist matches for you.
