That is true ToFu, an older T can be set in their ways and fail to help too. It depends on if a therapist continues to keep up with whatever "new" is coming out that has been studied and has been found effective treatment wise. The therapist I had went by Judith Herman's understanding of the three stages of healing that she wrote about in her book called "Trauma and Recovery". Her book has been out for quite a while, she spent a lot of time studying trauma patients, was basically a major ground breaker and understanding the "healing" stages of Trauma work.

The therapist I found did work with me on a curve too. These good therapists "are" out there. Often if therapist's network they get to know the ones that are "good" trauma therapists too. The therapist I finally found was not anyone I saw on the net either, I found him through word of mouth tbh.
