Don't worry. A psychologist doesn't prescribe meds or anything if that's what you're scared of. If anything, s/he will probably have a few more tools to help with (like talk therapy techniques and tests), but nothing to be intimidated by. A good psychologist should understand your fears and deal with them accordingly, helping you feel safe. Besides, you can always choose another therapist should you feel unhappy with the one you were referred to. Good luck!
