I agree with alot of the above posts. I have a son who graduated college in 2014 and now have a daughter who’s a senior in college so I have been through this twice. Now its my turn to help my step daughter. CC helped me through the process. Meet with your GC and do your research!! I dont think anyone really NEEDS a private counselor. I’m sure it helps but there are alot of great people on this site with alot of knowledge. Good Luck!
