I don't know if most (non-judgmental, read unlike me) people would consider this stuff to be deal breakers but I can't seem to get past them. So, can't deal with anyone who --

1. Emphasizes mindfulness, meditation, yoga, spiritual, the phrase "Eastern philosophy" (or spirituality etc) in their profile.

2. Has a list of questions in their profile about potential clients that go like "Are you depressed? Anxious? Looking to fulfill your life purpose?......." etc.

3. [Related to (2) above] Have stuff like "Clients tell me I'm warm, accepting....." etc in their profile.

4. Has images of flowers, candle flames, flowers + candle flames + random waves / rivers or other equally nausea-inducing stuff on their website / profiles.

5. Emphasizes some very specific type of therapy (E.g. EMDR etc) rather than broad training.

6. Has a photo that looks like it was taken in the 80s or something -- with the blurry, frozen, bad resolution look.

7. Includes photos of dogs, cats, pets or the therapist doing some random hobby.

And, this is all apart from other basic stuff like education, experience etc.

So, yeah, the more I look at other profiles as I think I should switch Ts, the more I find that my current T is one of the very few (at least going by PsychToday profiles) who I would actually bother seeing. Rather depressing.

Or, well, I should quit being ridiculously picky. Argh.
