How to choose a trauma and PTSD therapist
- Check the license with the state or provincial board that issued it; most boards publish a free online lookup.
- Make sure trauma and PTSD therapy is a regular part of their work, and ask what approach they use and why.
- Ask about their training in a named trauma therapy (CPT, PE or EMDR) and whether they hold a certification in it.
- 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.
- Check practical fit: in-person or online sessions, evening times, and how soon they have an opening.
- After a few sessions, ask yourself whether you feel heard. Changing to a different provider is common and fine.
