How does therapy actually work, how do you find a good one, and what’s the difference between counseling/therapy/psychiatrists/psychologists/etc.?

Make sure you find a good one. i left my first psychiatrist and never went back because she kept challenging me when I would express things and say “this is how I feel” she would constantly say no you dont. She also got upset at me because I didnt listen to her enough about what she thought my problem was, going so far as to ask “why are you even here?”.
She was rude and demoralizing, ive had severe trauma and PTSD from military experience and a violent and abusive upbringing. Make sure you feel comfortable saying how you feel and just remember, because they’re “the authority” doesn’t mean they’re good. if you dont feel like things are going in a good direction, you have the right to find another.
