Word of mouth: Word of mouth is often the best way. You must know someone seeking psychiatric or psychological help. If you file a worker's comp claim in the state of wi your employer is entitled access to your records. Rules vary from state to state. You can call your state medical, psychiatric, or psycholigcal society to find out. Also, www.Psychologytoday.Com has a listing of doctors for this in your area.

Psychologist: Ask your primary care doctor, your insurance provider or call your state psychological association, all should be able to provide referrals to match your needs. Ask your hr department and insurer if confidentiality is maintained. My best.

Your insurance company can also help U find a therapist in their panel. Access is confidential in large companies insurance information kept totally separate. Smaller mom and pop companies had glitches in the past, regulation.seems 2 have eliminated this.
