Default Re: How to find a counselor

Keep in mind therapists and counsulors may have a philosophical bias against swinging. It might be difficult to find a marriage counsulor who will not immediately think all your problems are because of swinging, and you should stop swinging and never do it again. (They would think that of ANY swinging couple, regardless of the situation.)

Another issue to consider: is the practicioner "directive" or "non-directive". A directive therapist will tell you/guide you into what to think and what should be important to you. A non-directive (Rogerian) therapist never gives opinions or tells you what is right for you. Keep in mind many therapists are directive in their approach.
