> I guess my one bit of advice, something that I wish someone had told me back when I started, was to interview at least a couple of Ts before you commit to one. I know that might not be feasible depending on your circumstances. But I think if I had done that, even though at the beginning I did feel like I clicked with my therapist, right now when we are struggling with difficult issues I wouldn't always be thinking that maybe there is someone better for me.

Thanks for the advice! And, I don't mind at all, my daughter is 14, and she suffers from internalizing all of her bad emotions. She is very anxious much of the time. I've told her if she can't learn to express the negative feelings, she'll end up with deression as an adult. She is very much hoping this will help her learn to cope better and express herself. She's a smart girl with a lot of friends, just hates conflict at all costs.
How old is your son, and what would he go for?
My 8 year old son just started too. Mainly for confidence enhancement, and I think its going to be very beneficial. Both are with different T's.Jazzed
