Choosing a therapist

Could I please get some advice on how to select a good therapist? I don’t have an adhd diagnosis but have been struggling with all the main challenges for a long long time, and am also struggling with depression and some level of anxiety at the moment. I live in a big city in the UK and the choice of therapists is overwhelming Thank you

Another idea is to not feel “stuck”. You may choose one who seems good on paper, but they just aren’t a good fit for you. Communication style is a big factor that can vary even amongst equally qualified therapists. So if you pick one and it doesn’t feel right, don’t feel shy about going out again and trying someone different.

Nothing too crazy really, but try to narrow down to ones who specifically mention ADHD in their bios or descriptions. You can occasionally still find dinosaurs who aren’t well-versed in what we’re dealing with, better to steer clear of them and avoid wasting your time.
