• Verify credentials: Look for appropriate licensure (e.g., psychologist PhD/PsyD, LCSW, LCPC). 

• Filter by issue and style: Use filters for specialties like anxiety, depression, trauma, EMDR, LGBTQ+, etc., and session types (in-person vs. online).

• Check insurance compatibility: Many providers accept Blue Cross/Shield, Aetna, Cigna, United & more. Lighthouse Emotional Wellness Center is one of the major mental health centers who offer these. 

• Read reviews and community feedback: Patient reviews on Zocdoc, Yelp, and Reddit reflect real experiences.

• Evaluate logistics: Consider availability, session fees and sliding scale options, telehealth, and location convenience.
