Wall of text coming, people who don't read the whole thing skip to the bold section at the bottom.

I come to the internet because the anonymity helps me not lie, manipulate, or simply not say things.

My overall question is WHO (If anybody) I go to, and how I find them. I am getting to the point where I need professional help for my depression/lack of motivation

Things that could get in the way (And why in parentheses)

I have Aspergers (They might focus on this, when it's not the issue)
I have a genius IQ (Not many people do)
I love ****ing with people dumber than I am (I won't respect the person if they make suggestions that are common sense, or come off as a general moron)
I live in Vermont, a state with a pop of 600,000
I live in the capital of Vermont; Montpelier, population 8000 (Everybody knows everything about everybody).

What I NEED:
In order to open up to somebody I need to respect them not only as a person but as a qualified person in their relation to me. Their relation to me is a therapist, so I have to know that they are not only smart, logical people, but also good at being a therapist. I need to know that the information I tell them stays, don't get me wrong. I know there are confidentiality laws... but who are we kidding... people break those all the time.

There are parts of my thinking that are outright... insane, and I don't want to be locked up because I am talking hypothetically. Just because I can think of something, does not mean I would do it, or believe it to be true.

Now... How do I go about finding something like this? I don't want people near me to know. I just want to be better. I need to be better.

I need a way to find a good, qualified therapist in person around Montpelier, Vermont. I have no idea how to start this... so please help.
