I am thinking a therapist who is a psychologist not a psychiatrist. So not someone who will prescribe you meds, but someone who will work with you on developing skills to manage your anxiety. Also, ask your psychiatrist for a different anti-depressant if the one she gave you made you have headaches. There are many anti-depressants out there. It's quite possible you will find one that works for you.
