Remember, when it comes to your emotional well being, you're allowed to be fussy.

• Research - if they have one, visit their website and see if their background sounds appealing to you.
• Think about whether you generally feel more comfortable speaking with someone from the same or a similar gender background to you.
• If you use or speak more than one language, you might find it useful to try a counsellor who can use the same languages as you.
• Think about whether you want someone who understands your spiritual or cultural background.
• Shop around. You and the counsellor/s you interact with are only human and naturally not everyone will have perfect chemistry. If you don't feel comfortable with the counsellor you first see, you don't have to keep going to them. Find someone that suits you and that you want on your team.

You want to pick someone you think you'll be comfortable talking about pretty much anything with and who will work with you in a style that works best for you.
