Friend, priest, acquittance at the bar and mental health professional are 4 different roles. Your therapist is not your friend, will refuse to play that role. Your therapist is also not your religious leader and wont speak into those considerations.

And conversely, neither priest nor friend will be able to deal with actual mental health issue you have.

Therapists aren’t great at it either.
