Two because I've seen some really bad Ts in the past and I want to make sure we're a good fit.

One works at my new pdoc's office. She seems nice. She has a PsyD (like Doc John!)

The other is a pdoc who also does therapy. If I like her, I think I'll let her prescribe for me too. She is a psychodynamic therapist, which is the kind of therapy my most recent T (the one who lives in my college town that I'm in love with ) does.

Hopefully I'll "click" with one of them. I think I could make a lot of progress with the right therapist.

that's great ... I hope at least one works out really well (and both would be even better)

Good plan to try out two and see who you click with.
