Of course not. Seeing a counselor is something that you do to improve your own health and happiness. You will learn new coping skills and approaches to manage your emotions more effectively. Seeing a counselor is like talking to a friend, but is different in some important ways. A counselor is a safe person to talk to. Unlike a friend, you won’t have to worry about what your counselor thinks about you. You won’t have to worry about your counselor telling others your private thoughts or secrets. Your counselor will never judge you even if you have done something that others would condemn you for. He/she will help you look into yourself and learn to make the best decisions that you can make for yourself. Seeing a mental health counselor is like seeing a doctor – it’s something that everyone benefits from doing at certain times. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. After all, many wealthy and famous people see a counselor regularly.
