Interview for fit
Ask about training, approach to infidelity, confidentiality, cost, availability, and how they handle safety concerns. Notice whether they listen without rushing you into reconciliation, separation, or disclosure you are not ready for.
It is okay to try more than one clinician. If you are in immediate danger or feel unable to stay safe, use local crisis or emergency resources rather than waiting for a routine appointment.
