Hey all, my name's Grace... I think I have a mild case of depression, but beyond that, I honestly think I have some sort of social anxiety disorder. Its getting to the point where I'll skip meals in the dining hall (I'm a college student...) so I don't have to deal with people. Somehow, I think that's a problem.

But anyway... I get that psychiatrists can be immensely helpful, its just that I had a horrible experience with one in the past (she tried to impose her beliefs on me and made me feel like crap). My school has a free counseling center that's completely confidential, though, and I'm seriously considering making an appointment. My question is this - there's two people who work there, a guy who's a licensed psychologist w/ New York state, and a lady who's a licensed clinical social worker. Any thoughts on whether what their officially licensed as would make a difference? Thanks in advance for your input.
