Re: Re: Resources in Washington DC for AS partners?

Well,

Everyone should remember that PT is a " pop psychology " mass-marketed magazine.

They make their money off adds, subscriptions, and professional listings just

like the ones that popped up when you did their Internet search. Also, most

experienced and reliable psychologists will not deign to list themselves on such

lists because they don't need tire-kickers tying up their Email and phone lines.

is no guarantee that a therapist actually does what he or she says in their

marketing, but at least this approach may be better than the yeller pages.

Well said, . One cannot always determine a resource's quality and

legitimacy solely by the venues in which they advertise. There may be

many reasons why they choose one and avoid another.
