Also, are you familiar with EMDR? I would go to RemedyFind.com web page and do a search for EMDR". There are some postings there from some users (no, I have yet to get my review posted there - shame on me). And I believe that there's at least one link to an organization or two with search engines on their sites where you can search for a certified therapist in your area... plus do a lot better job at explaining it than I could....

Excessive cortisol problems are directly involved in a significant number of anxiety and severe depression situations. The excessive cortisol actually "creates" (or "manufacturers") anxiety and severe depression... so getting the cortisol lowered and the HPA Axis re-set is vital to be able to successfully withdraw from medications that are being helpful (IMHO anyway!).'
