Need advice: general therapist or specialist in psychosis?

Right now Im looking to go into therapy again. I'm slipping into old habits now that a lot of changes happened in my life (moving, boyfriend moving in, financial stress), and I'm starting to feel the spiral pulling me down. I feel like i cant talk to anyone about it. I don't want to slip into an episode again when I just got my life back on track. So I've been advised many times to ...
