How are counselors assigned to a client? Can I request someone in particular?
VYFS assigns new clients to therapists on the first Wednesday following the intake appointment. We look for a “good fit,” incorporating the needs and personality of the client with the skills and expertise of the therapists. We also look for scheduling compatibility. Clients may request a particular therapist, and in most cases we are able to honor such requests, providing the therapist’s schedule works with the client’s schedule. Clients may also state a preference to work with a male or female counselor.
