The key is to understand how that help is of benefit to you. Some people expect a complete stranger to have all the answers but as everyone's problems are so different and complex, no one could have all the answers. What they do is help you unlock the tools you already possess in order to help you help yourself, but you've got to let them in and you've got to go all in yourself, its not easy, it will feel so unnatural to begin with but the more you open up the better it will get.

Good luck.
I had five x 1 hour with a psychologist. In the fifth one I said, "You don't have answers, do you? You just help me ask the right questions?"

The wry smile told me I was done.
