[quote=Anonymous]Interview them like you are interviewing them for a job. After all, you are hiring them. Ask them if they are aligned with a particularly philosophy of relationship healing. Ask them to recommend outside reading. Ask them for references. Ask them want training conferences they went to or if they have special certifications. After they collect history, ask them for their treatment plan. I worry about therapists cow towing to the weakest link - usually the husband who gets dragged in by the wife. I felt ganged up on in this situation because he didn't want to turn off my husband who made it very clear he was very skeptical about counseling, and I really wanted intervention. But the therapist wasn't strong enough to take a lead, just was a very beta male to my husband's alpha male bravado, which still turned off my husband. We haven't been back. [/quote]
