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

I developed OCD when I was a kid but didn’t get diagnosed until going to a string of expensive doctors much later on. I got recommended to see a counselor/therapist to do Cognitive Behavior Therapy. It’s been IMMENSELY helpful in my life.
Even without ocd though, therapy is great to teach you how to properly think through tough issues and handle particular problems. It’s your mind and emotions—everyone should go occasionally and it shouldn’t be viewed as any bigger deal than regular physical checkups.
