Relationship Counselor

I have been reading a lot of posts lately where people are struggling a lot with relationships/ loneliness / extra marital / finding match / settling on a mindset, etc of various types and stages. I know there is therapy available but if there is a relationship Counselor available, would you be willing to pay and how much.

No counselling for me- will struggle
I need counselling but don't have money.
I will pay upto 1000 ₹ per session
I will pay a premium money.

Clarification !!

Neither am a counselor or provide any such service.

Polls purpose is to see if we as a society feel the need of such a service where people can discuss with a professional or do we feel that it is a waste of money or I will deal with it by myself or I have a decent bunch of friends and family to support and guide me.

I think the fact that you associated a price (1000rs) with the service insinuates that you are fishing for answers, which is why people think you're a therapist 😂

I just put in a random price.. given a normal doctor consultation itself costs 600-800 bucks or a CA would charge 1500 for a very simple ITR.

Credentials of relationship counselor?

Let's say the person has relevant education and experience in the domain. We are not determining the counselor here, rather assessing individuals choice for such services in the society

Also, what's the previous track record of success of the counselor with past clients? How do we know their counseling or methods actually bring results, and for what percentage of their clients.

And no, the answer that pay and try it, to see if helps you, is not a valid answer

Counselling is a scam. It became big after american sitcoms became famous.
It's foolishness of the highest levels to even participate in that nonsense.

Hmm, interesting.
So do we feel, they will not be able to help much or at all but keep sucking the money. Or they may even put you in a worse state than earlier

Also, notice the insidious / manipulative word choice of the answer choice. It's not "No counseling for me".

It's "No counseling for me - will struggle" that's trying to convince the person not choosing to pay, that they're actively choosing to the continuing pain in their lives, and low-key gaslighting them that they are the ones responsible for all their problems.

If OP is really a psychologist / counselor, this alone shows they're shit at this job, and willing to be manipulative towards clients for money.
