How do I talk to my therapist about switching?

I'm thinking about switching therapists, but I'm not sure how to bring it up.

It's completely normal to feel that way. You can start by expressing your feelings about your current therapy experience.

What if I hurt their feelings by saying I want to switch?

Therapists are trained to handle these situations professionally. You can reassure them that it's about your needs, not their skills.

How can I explain my reasons for wanting to switch?

Be honest and specific. You might say something like, 'I feel like I need a different approach or style that suits me better.'

Should I have another therapist lined up before I talk to my current one?

It's a good idea to explore other options, but you don't have to have someone lined up before the conversation.
