Cyrano don't feel it is in any way your fault. There is a handful of bad counselors out there. I have had about 7 different counselors. I went to low income counseling so most were Cal State psych students. Most were good but 2 of them were awful. I had one who on the first session within the first 5 minutes accusingly ask me if I beat my girlfriend. The session was pure hell and she seemed like she needed counseling more than I did. I apprehensively called and asked if I could have another counselor and they were totally cool about it. I encountered the counselor from hell a couple times in the waiting room subsequently, but she didn't say anything and I don't think she lasted very long.
