Inconsistent quality of counsellors
Tried to see a therapist for anxiety and stress about my health, but he 1) tried to medically diagnose my physical symptoms, which I don't think was appropriate for the situation or that he is qualified to do; 2) told me to get a health checkup because (and i quote verbatim) "people might feel healthy and then collapse and have cancer"; and 3) told me to get a health insurance because hospital bills are SO expensive. I had to stop the session 20 minutes in just because of how bad it was. The field I chose was "illness"; I can't imagine someone who is struggling with an actual illness being told these things from a therapist. This was literally the worst experience I've had with a mental health professional. I'm giving it 2 stars instead of 1 only because last year when I used Share for stress and anxiety, I got a therapist who was at least competent with her job. After just 2 uses, I'm shocked and disappointed with the inconsistent quality of therapists/counsellors here.
