Finding The Right Mental Health Professional
Just like there are a wide variety of wounds warriors experience during and following combat, there are a wide variety of health professionals to treat those wounds. Finding the right therapist depends on what matters most to you. Determine if you are interested in a specific type of therapy or if your selection will be limited by your health care provider and fees. Regardless of what you decide is right for you, there are a number of ways to find a suitable therapist. 

Scheduling An Appointment
When you call to schedule an appointment, be sure to mention that you are looking for a therapist who specializes in effective treatment of the specific issue(s) you would like to address. For example, an effective treatment for PTSD is cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT).
