How do I know if a psychologist is right for me?

Make sure to find a good "fit" between you and your psychologist.  If you feel comfortable with a psychologist, you may be able to share important information more easily and work together more productively.  When you first contact the psychologist by phone, you can get an initial impression by asking a few questions such as:
•    Are you accepting new clients?
•    How much experience do you have helping people with my problem? What are your      qualifications? Are you registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario?
•    What special techniques do you use?
•    What does a typical session look like?
•    What are your hours?
•    What are your fees?
If you feel that you can only form an impression by meeting a psychologist in person, ask him or her if you can come by for about 20 minutes to get acquainted. Some clients prefer to interview a few psychologists in person before making a choice. It is important that you feel comfortable so you can follow your treatment plan and suceed
