Of the three I saw once each, I initially found two in the phone book (go on, laugh; the internet wasn't my go-to place yet, plus AltaVista was the top search engine then) and one on Psychology Today.

The ones I'm interviewing next week are all professional referrals.

I am not interested in which method is best, just how people found them.
Professional referral from another PhD psychologist. He gave me a list of people he said were well trained and professional. I chose the first one on the list. It's been a good fit.
