Therapist Directories

These directories can help you find a great therapist. You may want to filter by your particular problem or the approach you want your therapist to use. Many of these directories also allow you to filter by therapist's identity.

Please add others in comments, and I will add them to the post.

I've been watching a lot of HeathyGamerGG lately. Is he good?

For those who don't know, he is a twitch streamer/youtuber that talks a lot about mental health, specifically for gamers and people in the internet generation.

In some videos, he does "therapy sessions" (technically they are not for legal purposes, but they definitely feel like therapy) with various people in the twitch/youtube sphere. I am really interested to hear the perspective of different therapists regarding his content.

Are his interactions with people similar to what you see in real therapy sessions? Most importantly, would it be worthwhile studying how he conducts these sessions and learning from them?

Thanks for any insights!

Opinions on Hypnotherapy

Hi all. I am from the United States, and I understand that insurance most likely will not cover hypnotherapy. Being that it'll be out of pocket, and fairly expensive, I wanted to see if anybody here had any positives or negatives with respect to using hypnotherapy. My main goal with this type of therapy would be to address my focus and memory with regard to my ADHD. Thank you!

“Name It to Tame It:” Simply naming an overwhelming emotion helps calm it down [TOOL INSIDE - FEELINGS WHEEL]

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/401924

STEPS

  1. Notice what you are experiencing. Find the best-fitting name for it on THE FEELINGS WHEEL.

  2. Focus on the bodily sensations and keep repeating to yourself slowly: “I’m feeling X, I’m feeling X, I’m feeling X.”

  3. The goal is not to completely eliminate the emotion, but to make it manageable.

Very Affordable Therapy

This link is posted in the therapist directories thread, but I wanted to make a separate post about it because of how great it seems. From there website, it says:

After a 1 time membership fee of $65, you’ll pay between $40-70/session for individual therapy ($30 for student intern sessions.) Online and in-person sessions are available.

That's more than half the price of the average rate where I live. I wish I had known about this a few years ago when I started going.
