Counseling can be hard at first, opening up to a stranger is by no means easy and it is understandable that you have some hesitations. The thing is you can't knock it till you try it, and I mean really try it. You'd be surprised at how these people actually do care, that's why they get into that profession. Maybe try to write things out that you can talk about. That way you can give them the paper to let them know some things you want to talk about if you feel you might have problems talking about stuff. Try to make the most of your time with them, they can be extrememly helpful. Try to stay strong and take care.
