There are two main certifying and insuring bodies for therapy work:
Therapy Dogs International:
http://www.tdi-dog.org/
Delta Society
www.deltasociety.org
Also concentrate on working on the AKC Canine Good Citizen Test, or the APDT CLASS as starting points towards the skills needed for therapy work.
CGC:
http://www.akc.org/events/cgc/index.cfm
CLASS
http://www.mydoghasclass.com/
These you can work on your own for a while so you aren't wasting time if a therapy specific class isn't open immediately near you.
