My sister gave me the name of my T from a colleague of hers. So I didn't get an official referral but kind of a friend of a friend knows he's good sort of thing. My T told me he gets most of his clients through referrals from previous clients.

I didn't interview any Ts. I just went to my T and we talked, he didn't have history forms--just the informed consent. That first session gave me a good idea on whether he could help me, and probably the same for him. We both got a chance to ask what we needed to know.
