For anyone knowledgeable in the area of psychotherapy: Would it be weird to ask any potential therapist if they can arrange a free (but brief) consultation to see if they would be a good fit for me? I know 2 of my potential therapist offer something like that but I'm not sure of the other two. And I really don't have money to waste for a full initial session, especially if things don't work out.
I don't know that I'm all that knowledgeable regarding psychotherapy, but IMO if you don't have money to waste then I think it would be an excellent idea to ask if they can arrange a free consultation. I wish all therapists offered this, but unfortunately not all of them do. Good luck.
Thanks for this!
