Answer by Dr. Bob
1. Ask your family doctor to recommend someone.

2. Ask a local clergy person to recommend someone.

3. Check out the “psychologists” and “marriage and family counseling” sections of your phone book Yellow Pages.

4. If there’s a college or, better yet, a university nearby (or even not near…) call the psych department for names of cognitive therapist or Adlerian therapists.

Good hunting… — Dr. Bob (Adlerian Psychologist)
