Are there sites/platforms for searching for an English speaking therapist? Something like Talkiatry but for EU preferably?

The reason I'm not looking for a psychiatrist locally is because where I'm living the level of specialists is terrible to put it lightly. Most of them don't even know what ADHD or atomoxetine is, or they claim that ADHD is some children issue and doesn't affect adults. And I know it through very painful experience visiting them.

Thank you in advance!

That's been a huge block for me, too. I need help, but I can't spend the time and money it would take to find someone who won't prejudge me on a few demographics. I wish there was a thing like a bridal show where you could meet mental health professionals in a speed date-like format to find someone comfortable and supportive of your circumstances.
