Therapy is a great garbage collector. One doesn't need perceived psychological issue to benefit. And it doesnt have to be trying to resolve some hidden childhood pain or whatever. Sometimes it's so much better to pay someone to dump your trivial mental garbage on knowing that:

1. They arent going to find it gossip worthy and spread it to one or more people in your social groups.

2. You get to unburden yourself without burdening friends on the regular.

3. Sometimes there is real benefit to having a neutral 3rd party to help provide a different perspective on something that may be blocking some minor thing - and gets you on your way quicker
