How to choose a trauma and PTSD therapist

  1. Check the license with the state or provincial board that issued it; most boards publish a free online lookup.
  2. Make sure trauma and PTSD therapy is a regular part of their work, and ask what approach they use and why.
  3. Ask about their training in a named trauma therapy (CPT, PE or EMDR) and whether they hold a certification 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 a trauma and PTSD therapist

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