Hi.
Do you mean to find a t? Or a website A t would get info on like articles for themselves.
Psychology today and good therapy.org are good websites to find TS.
There's a website called psychotherapy.net I believe which is geared towards TS learning new info and stuff. I hope that helps. If you want the full direct links of stuff I can send them.

I'm a T in training and have heard PC Professional is well liked for general information. Otherwise there are online newsletters that you need subscriptions to and private groups/forums or blogs. MH professionals wouldn't use public websites for professional information so much since I think there would be a conflict of interest in there somewhere.

Is that the information you're looking for?
Thanks for this!

They like to keep info to themselves and try to keep clients in the dark so they don't make it easy for non licensed people to find or get. If you have a friend who is licensed - you can get access to a lot of information.

Theres the APA, ACA and NSWA websites but you do need memberships to use them. There isn't much on any of these sites that is very revealing, although there is useful information from a professional development angle.

For writings by and for MH professionals, the Carlat Report and Psychiatric Times are informative, although are psychiatric and research oriented. As far as forums, myshrinkwrap.com is an interesting read and sheds some light on things from a Ts perspective.
Thanks for this!

Aside from APA and what has been mentioned, I don't think many therapists use commercial/privately-owned type websites, blogs etc. for reference. Sometimes forums for discussion/opinions. Often various "official" research databases online or through universities; usually need access. Also local licensing boards and/or managed care orgs often have "provider resource" type websites where you can get handouts, training powerpoints, tests, etc. So looking at a few state boards you might find links.
