I try and keep it simple. like you said you needed therapy. so why do you think you need therapy. when I feel like I need therapy there is something that I need to work out, a problem of some kind. maybe think about what made you think you needed therapy. is there a problem that you feel you cant work out on your own.

what kind of therapy goes with what ever problem you need to be in therapy for... if its a behavior problem then behavior therapies (DBT, CBT, and others center on teaching someone how to make changes and better their behaviors and thoughts) if the problem is stress then stress relief therapies work like art therapy, meditation therapy and others that center on learning how to control your stress reactions....

the first step though is to figure out why you feel you need therapy, that will lead you to what kind of therapy you need. each person has their own problems and so different therapies work for different people.
