Yeah it’s one of the most challenging parts. The process of getting therapy is not set up to be easy for the kind of people who need it. Availability is the most limiting factor these days, so if you don’t get a good match, you could be stuck waiting months for another try. I got pretty lucky on my second try a few years ago, but my wife just gave up trying to find someone. It’s hard to blame her.

You now have 5 therapists to choose from though
You need to find your fit just like in love or friendship because it’s a highly personal relationship that you’re trying to develop with that person.
Ironic, considering most of us who need therapy struggle with relationships
