How Do I Find a Therapist?
Finding a therapist does not have to be complicated. The right place to start is by thinking about what you want help with and what would make you comfortable talking to someone.
You do not need to have a diagnosis before looking for a therapist. People seek therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, grief, loneliness, workplace problems and major life changes.

What should I look for in a therapist?
Start with five things:
1. What do you want help with? Look for someone who regularly works with the concern you're experiencing.
2. What qualifications do they have? Check the professional's qualifications, registration where applicable, training and experience.
3. What language would you prefer? Being able to express yourself comfortably matters. For many people, that means speaking in their first or preferred language.
4. Online or in person? Both are possible forms of psychological support. Choose the format that makes it easier for you to attend consistently and speak openly.
5. What can you afford? Therapy fees vary considerably by professional, experience, location, session format and specialisation.
Do I need to know exactly what's wrong?
No.
You can begin with something as simple as:
> "I've been feeling overwhelmed and I don't know why."
A therapist can help you understand what you're experiencing and decide what kind of support may be appropriate.
