Topic: Finding & Choosing the Right Therapist for You!

The future of mental health services is rapidly changing. Those first to adopt new technologies set the standard others will follow. By bringing together leading clinical organizations, mental health professionals, and clients, Find-a-Therapist, Inc., a Web enabled network, is setting that standard and increasing access and communication to better meet the needs of clinicians and clients everywhere.

Find-a-Therapist grew out of my guest's successful counseling practice, FindingStone Counseling Center, which she founded in 1994. With the largest international network of Therapists, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, Social Workers, Marriage and Family Therapists, Counselors and other mental health professionals on the Web, www.find-a-therapist.biz offers both the corporate and individual client the greatest choice possible to meet the need for the right provider, in the right way at the right time.
