You need a one in front of whom w you can feel easy and conformable. Usually the first session is always free, if you don’t feel a connection move on to the next one.
Sharing Values
It is very critical for you both to share the same values. One must have a thought that psychotherapy has no value but at the same time he should be finding a good therapist. A client therapist is a relationship. If you want to create a relationship, it should start from the core. For example, if your partner in relationship has brought you into the therapy, you must want to know what your therapists think about relationships.
Listening skills:
It is very important for a therapist to have good listening skills. You have to make sure that your therapist is attentive and is hearing what you say.
Challenging:
A therapist should not please you. A therapist doesn’t have to flatter you if you are suffering from self esteem problems. Choose a therapist who challenges you, or the one who gives to some assignments to improve. Ask the therapist about the duration of the therapies. Never accept an answer that is vague. A experienced person can guess what you are expecting.
