True, it's exhausting to make phone calls to Ts and "interview" them (I've never done so myself and would just wing it in the past). You also will rarely find one that tells you they don't do psychodynamic therapy even if they usually don't. If you go through the VA then I imagine most of your options are for shorter term therapy and therefore behavioral based therapists. Not a bad thing but it doesn't sound like what you are looking for.
