In reply to is it ethical to ask for NAMES of good therapists?, posted by laima on July 18, 2006, at 9:46:46
Laima,
This is a major problem. I've been there. I am amazed that within the vast reach of the internet it is still not possible get a handle on a good therapist that may meet one's needs. There are online data-bases for heart doctors, dentists, thyriod specialists, etc. Many of these sites include reviews by patients, and I don't see a problem with that, we are the consumers, it's our money.
But I've found very little substanive info for mental health providers.

> I was trying to figure out if asking for names of therapists people have found to be especially helpful (in my city) would be in accordance to board rules and general ethics- just because it is an internet forum, after all. I'm still a little unsure if this would be appropriate- any thoughts?
