Directories - Doctors and Therapists

Directories of doctors who treat depression.

American Psychological Association

Many state and provincial psychological associations offer referral directories composed of their own members. These have been indexed here by state and province.

Psychology Today: Find a Therapist

Psychology Today screens applicants for its directory to determine if they are licensed in their area of practice. Each therapist listing may contain a photo, contact information and detailed information about insurance, fees, areas of practice, education and licensing. Therapists have the option of providing information about their malpractice insurance.
