Glad we could all help.

You hopefully will find a large number of therapists in your area specializing in mood disorders. I know I have a fair number in my area. A method you might use to cull it down or pick the first to try is look at their additional specialities too. Most therapists will list them on their practice websites online. You might want to consider additional issues in your life that you might need to work on. Ex substance abuse, PTSD, marriage, abuse as a child. There are lots of specialities.
I think of those as what kind of issues the therapist is most interested/perhaps even considers himself or herself best in working with in addition to mood disorders. Don't be afraid to poke around the practice website. My therapist has a professional email address where prospective clients can directly email her for more info or with questions.

I hope you find someone great right out of gate. Even if you don't click with the first one, though keep trying. It will be worth it when you do.
