So I typed in therapist in google and found a lot of different type of therapist in my area. Which type of therapist should I be looking for? (ie: psychotherapist or psychologist or occupational therapist)
Generally anyone with a doctorate is going to be much more expensive, like a psychologist or psychiatrist. A therapist is much cheaper. I see a licensed counselor, but when I started seeing her she was in training. That made it cheaper.
Bear in mind there are different kinds of therapy. Lots of people use CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy). My therapist uses an emotional-based practice that is good for trauma. Then there are dozens of other kinds of therapy. So you can feel like you are dealing with alphabet soup.
When you google the therapists you can usually read a description of their practice. That helps give you and idea about a fit. Most will list what kind of people they work with it, like "couples, individuals, children" and what they are good at helping, like "anxiety, grief and loss, trauma," and so forth.
Most therapists will have a free initial consult over the phone. That way you can ask questions, see if it sounds like a good fit for you before making an appointment. It's perfectly okay to decide a therapist isn't a good match.
An occupational therapist, by the way, does gross and fine motor stuff, like with stroke victims. Totally different area.
