I would, however, stress that you should feel comfortable with the counselor or psychologist. I went to one for several months, and she was so judgmental and not accepting of my situation. I would go home feeling worse than when I went in. Finally, I said "Why am I paying someone to feel this bad about myself?" and I quit. A different person would have probably made a difference in results.
Even if you just talk it over with your friends, getting it out is healthier than keeping it in. PM me if you need to chat.
A therapist is not supposed to be judgemental or critical. Sorry that you had a negative experience with that therapist.
