What your looking for does not seem like anti-psychiatry - it seems like you need a very good, understanding therapist (or perhaps even psychiatrist, as medication might be helpful in this situation).
I am not acquainted with all the references you have made (to specific theories or individuals). But your requirements are not that much different - believe it or not - from someone who suffers from severe depression or manic-depression. It is slightly complicated by the desire to have someone who has experience treating schizophrenia (and if you are needing that, then having someone who can prescribe medication would be important). But shouldn't the issue be less about their exact theory and more about whether they can help you?
