i actually don't mind playing the therapist role! so many people come to lawyers when they are overwhelmed or in a bad spot. If you can help them out, whether that's by actually solving the problem or by being a smart/aligned sounding board, that's a huge bonus. A lot of lawyers don't like playing that role though (understandably so, since it's not technically "part" of the job).
