I got my first counselor through my mom's EAP thing, and she was the only one who could see me fairly soon. My psychiatrist was also through the EAP (turns out it was a mistake though). I dropped my counselor after 3 or 4 visits, she seemed fairly forgetful (couldn't spell my name, asked me the same things over and over) and she seemed to put me down more than agree with the things I was saying. She kept saying "where are you going to get with a GED? you should go back to school. blah blah blah" Figures, she worked for the school district. I really like my psychiatrist though, he's nice and seems to understand and not be judgmental. I only see him once a month or so to discuss how the medication is working. I think he's probably in his 30's, he doesn't look old. He gave my mom the number of 2 other counselors, so we're going to call them and see how they work out.
