I have a marriage counselor and individual counselor and I think they are both great at what they do and are extremely helpful.

It took a few therapists for me to find one that really understood me and worked well with me. I wish that was standard practice, to let new patients know it often takes time, and that they shouldn't feel bad about trying a new therapist to find someone who really gets them.
