Any recommendations for a really great career counselor, particularly one familiar with careers at least tangentially related to the law? I'm looking for someone who can really help me evaluate my strengths, personality, interests, and values and who has extensive familiarity with a wide variety of careers -- someone who can help me find my passion in life.

ShrinkFilter: I've been increasingly stressed, self-loathing and distracted for years, and (since my spouse and I are having a baby in a few months) have decided I need to Get Professional Help--mostly to figure out what's wrong with me and deal with it, so I don't pass it on to our kid. But "professional help" is a very big category, and I need to narrow it down. I want to find somebody whose perspective is "let's figure out the big problems and how you can fix them, as efficiently as possible," rather than "there's nothing wrong with you that years of expensive chatting can't prolong." I'd also like to avoid medication. How do I find the right... therapist? counselor? I don't even know what the right word is.
