I agree that CBT is well-supported by the evidence, and in general should be rationalism-friendly but that isn’t always so. The therapist I mentioned in my OP was, in fact, calling himself a CBT practitioner. So I was hoping someone knew a CBT guy (or other equally well-supported method, honestly) he personally liked.
There are a handful of CBT books that are about as effective in general as having a therapist. You might be interested in feeling good, the depression workbook, or the anxiety workbook. I recommend that you keep looking for social support as well.

Oh. Well, that’s surprising.
Sorry, I’m not in the area.
