Ive been seeing various people in the boston area for the last 15 years. It seems to me that the best approach is to either put in a lot of effort (sometimes needed) to get a consult with docs that specialize in treating your specific condition OR to keep changing docs until you get one who has a treatment plan that works.
I got a PTSD diagnosis from my last doc, and although shes been a total letdown in many other ways that dx has put me on a much more beneficial path.
Dont be afraid to ask for referrals! I got a referral to an EMDR practitioner and from there a referral to a psychopharm doc. These people often attend conferences and training and network with each other.
