It is not fair to lump all into one group. To my understanding, Rav Avigdor Miller Z”L, who was looked upon and frequented by all types Litvish,Chassidish,Modern,Heimish, etc., did not approve of therapists. One should have a Rav as it says in Pirkei Avos. However, in many extreme cases the Rav who will recommend therapy will give his follower a name of someone he is familiar with. In many so called more modern kehillos, the Rav in addition to his semicha has to have a degree in such as psychology or social work. In addition, before hiring him(the Rav) , the Rebbitzen is interviewed too and that is why they usually have a great team and community.
In many yeshivos there is what is called a mashpia to help those who need someone to talk to.
One should not go to any therapist before checking them out and seeing what schooling they have/had.
Nefesh, which is an organization for orthodox therapists in psyche field lists many and they are rated as well. For example, we have a family friend whose daughter was secretly taken from her home. The daughter was over 18 so it could be said it was her choice. To make the story short, the therapist who the daughter was seeing and listened to one side only and recommended the escape. When we checked her out on Nefesh, her ratings were the lowest with schooling that the lowest IQ could do. In presenting this to someone who so called led the daughter to this so called shmerapist, the answer was “she was the cheapest.” The damage is done to a family who may never be reconciled on account of an uneducated therapist who too(when inquiring) has a dysfunctional family.
