I have had therapy from a vairety of degreed persons.
My last T was a psychologits and we didn't click and I changed to a psychodynamic psychoanalytic therapist who is a candidate (in training to become an analyst) at a local institute and she is a MSW (Masters Social Work) and LMHC (Licennsed Mental Heatlh Counselor). She is truly wonderful and it is the type of therapy that I want. (The psychologist offered hypnotherapy and did not want to talk).
I found her by contacting the institute (found throguh Google of Psychoanalytic Institutes) and asking for a referral to someone in the community. The candidates for the institute are usually practicing already but continuing their education.
I have had other MSW and PhD clinical psychologists who offered Behavioral Therapy and that type therapy wasn't helpful to me.

Sometimes you just have to try out a few therapists to find one you feel good about.
