There are many types of therapies you can research to learn about what might appeal to you. One site I like is www.guidetopsychology.com .

I found my therapist through the psychoanalytic institute near my city. I called and asked if they had a candidate (student) who had a practice in my area. They did. She had her psychoanalysis certificate from the institute now and is still involved there. She's been a therapist for over 20 years. Some institutes offer therapy there and some therapists offer discounted fees when there is no insurance involvement, like mine did.
