It is hard looking for a new therapist!! I recently went through that myself. I got referrals from my psychiatrist and I also looked at nami.org. If you have reps in your area I'm sure they could assist you. They're usually pretty helpful.

It can be a daunting task, so hang in there!

I ended up narrowing down therapists I'd seen online or in the phonebook by location(how far Id have to drive to get to them), and specialty(like depression/trauma,ptsd,ocd)
Then I further narrowed it down by checking out their websites or calling them personally to figure out other questions I had. Like...fees, payment options, availibility, and client capacity. You dont want anyone who takes on too many clients and is hard to make appointments with. Plus, you'll get a good idea over the phone about their personality. So ask any questions about their special credentials, types of therapies they use most often, and types(specific disorders) of clients they usually serve.

Good luck!
