Now that you know who your insurance accepts and will pay for the next step is to set up "consultation" appoinment. if you let the scheduling person know you are researching to fid the therapist for you and would like to meet the person to ask them some questions and so sometimes these comsult appointments are free, sometimes not but I have found its worth it.

Then you go to the appointments with a list of questions you would like answers to for example their experience with the problem you have, liscencing background, what a typical session would be like, if they have any requirements of their clients such as homework, suicide contracts, their protocal with suicide thoughts and actions, cutting and other self harm if those are your issues, medication protcal, their openness to include your ideas on what you want to do for example I create my own projects, find workbooks and so on to help myself, cost of sessions, limits during sessions, how many sessions they see their clients for, after hours protocal and so on. Emergency sessions protocals,you might also check with your insurance most insurance only allows a certain number of sessions, you will want to space that number out at a managable pace so that you are not suddenly left hanging with months of no therapy while you wait for the next fiscal (budget) year so your insurance will pay for your appoinments.

Once you see them for the consult appointments and they have all answered your questions you will know who is the best for you and for the problems you want to take care of.
