iamanders,
Treatment depends, in large part, to you (as the Patient). You decide who you think is best to help you. In current Western civilization, psychiatrists (pDoc's) focus on diagnosing and chemically treating patients.
The therapist (T, social worker or psychologist) one chooses has typically specialized in specific areas (such as child psychology, sexual abuse, personality disorders, etc.), or has chosen to be more broad-based style. {With no particular style of psychotherapy techniques used.}
I would advise you (or whoever you're thinking of with this Q) to consider the "problems" and those who specialize in those "types of problems". Go from there...best wishes to you!
