A psychiatrist is likely to just write you a prescription for anti-depressant and anti-anxiety meds. A psychologist will teach you ways of coping with the stress you're under, and ways of helping Colleen cope with the stress she's under.
I can't give you any leads on courses, support groups, etc., in your specific area. But my grown son is a clinical psychologist, and I could ask him for some buzzwords and catch-phrases that might steer you in the right direction. Would you like me to do that?
