Before I first met with my T, I checked out his website. I read everything on it, including links to papers he had written. So I already knew that his practice style and credentials were what I was looking for. All that was left was whether I liked him personally. I knew within about 5 minutes that I had found the one. 14 months later, I agree that first impressions can be accurate. I guess we just clicked. He is smart, sense of humor, experienced, and has a very nonjudgmental way about him. Also, his office is very comfy with bookcases everywhere and an oriental rug on the floor.

All of these positives are enough to outweigh the fact that he knows just how good he is. Saying he has a positive self-image is putting it mildly.
