Finding the right therapist was one of the best things I ever did for myself. And one of the hardest.
I work in mental health (I'm a psych nurse) so searching elsewhere for help with my own problems was hard for me. Pride. You know. I went through a few therapists before I found one I actually felt comfortable with and thought would really helpme. It's been such a good thing. She's really helping me work through my issues, and she's able to hear what I've said and paraphrase it into something really simple and obvious that I just never realized before! It's been so, so good for me.
I highly recommend therapy. I just encourage you to find someone you like and trust. Not everybody "clicks" with every therapist... if you're just not feeling someone, ask for a referral. The right one for you is out there.
