Here is the American Psychology Association's (APA) website to search for a psychologist in your area. These are psychologists who are members of the APA.

APA Locator:

-- https://locator.apa.org/

You can find psychologists, social workers, and other therapists on this website. These are paid advertisements from therapists however I find this website to be a good place to locate therapists in your area.

Psychology Today: Find a Therapist:

-- https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists

Please stay away from BetterHelp.com and other such virtual therapy services. I've followed the research on BetterHelp.com and both patients and therapists have had poor experiences. If you'd like me to explain more on the research or provide research articles on BetterHelp I am happy to do that.

I am a therapist and I agree about Betterhelp.com and any other online service such as that. It hasn’t been good for clients or therapists. It is a business designed for a third party to profit.
Since covid, a lot of therapists did offer telehealth sessions, though, and many clients still prefer that. Especially Seniors who have trouble getting to an office.
Psychology Today is a good resource. It will give you a profile of the therapist including insurance they accept, specialty, etc.
