How to choose an anxiety and OCD therapist

  1. Check the license with the state or provincial board that issued it; most boards publish a free online lookup.
  2. Make sure anxiety and OCD therapy is a regular part of their work, and ask what approach they use and why.
  3. If OCD is the concern, ask whether they offer exposure and response prevention (ERP) and how they were trained in it.
  4. Ask about fees, insurance and the cancellation policy before the first session. In the US, if you are uninsured or paying yourself, you can ask for a good faith estimate of expected charges.
  5. Check practical fit: in-person or online sessions, evening times, and how soon they have an opening.
  6. After a few sessions, ask yourself whether you feel heard. Changing to a different provider is common and fine.

Questions to ask an anxiety and OCD therapist

  • Are you accepting new clients, and how soon could I start?
  • Which license do you hold, and in which state or province?

  • Which approach do you use for anxiety or OCD, and why?
  • What do you charge per session, and do you take my insurance or provide a superbill?
  • Do you offer online sessions?
