I tried counseling at school but it didn't help because it was people who just listen to your problems. they know nothing about medication or illness's. I prefer DBT therapy. It helped in just a few weeks and I was making headway but I had to go back to school so I couldn't finish the therapy. In my opinion I think you should ask the department you are going to for counseling, which person has a degree in phsycology, then you are actually getting your money's worth.

One should not start giving counseling unless one is asked!!!
I give suggestions, advice, or counseling when I come to know the real situation and genuine requirement of the individual. I prefer the area of mental health only.

I do not market.Health Question & Answer

I have been in counseling by both a psychologist and a psycho-therapist...It will only work if you consciously put in the effort and be honest in the sessions. The down side is its extremely expensive depending on how many sessions you need per week. Health Question & Answer
