Find a Spiritual Therapist

posted by Beyond Blue | 10:30am Wednesday October 17, 2007

If I weren’t a clutter magnet in an information-hoarding crisis at the moment, I’d be able to find my print-out of a Beyond Blue reader’s comment who wanted to know how to go about finding a spiritual therapist.
More on this next week. But here’s a great first step: use Beliefnet’s Find a Therapist tool which can guide you to a therapist, couples counselor, or spiritual advisor in your area who shares your beliefs and can really listen.

Therapy Thursday: Sweat
I have decided to dedicate a post on Thursday to therapy, and offer you the many tips I have learned on the couch. They will be a good reminder for me, as well, of something small I can concentrate on. Many of them are published in my book, "The Pocket Therapist: An Emotional Survival Kit." Work

Scrupulosity: What It Is and Why It's Dangerous
If you sprinkle a hefty dose of Catholic (or Jewish) guilt unto a fragile biochemistry headed toward a severe mood disorder, you usually arrive at some kind of a religious nut. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! For I am one. I have said many places that growing up Catholic, for me, was

The Treasures of Darkness
We often equate darkness with sorrow, misery, get-me-the-hell-out-of-here reaction. At least I do. That’s why I keep a mammoth Happy Lite on my smallish cubicle at work. But darkness can also be a treasure. Say what? J. R. Miller writes this in “From Streams in the Desert” by L. B. C

On Groundhog Day: 12 Winter Depression Busters
Last year on this day, I got fired. That was a real pleasant Groundhog Day. I was so confused by what had happened that I drove around the D.C. beltway twice. I missed my exit, and realized that halfway around the second time. I just thought on this day, you could probably use some winter depres

6 Ways to Stay Resilient in Stress

I tried the tool out of curiosity, and was interested to see the list of therapists that popped-up.
This tool might be a good place to start, however checking out local support groups and talking to people there is also a great help.
Talk to everyone and anyone that has an opinion about the different therapists in your area. A real eye opener. Try to find people that you know have had problems, but seem to be doing well in their life.
Also, if you are seeing a psychiatrist and are taking meds, be sure your therapist and psychiatrist have a good working relationship.
