What I think doesn’t really matter.
However, one should have common sense and only approach a Tora Authority that has Torah and seichel.
This I heard from Harav Avigdor Miller.
I do know of cases in which a RY that I am close with, does send some talmidim that contact him to professional help. He is ultra Chasiddish and has no problem sending them even if the therapist is a female.
Make sure that the person you turn to, really knows what he is doing and that he has seichel.
Harav Miller also said, that making sure to have close contact with a RY or Rav that is a talmid chacham and has seichel, is like an insurance policy should something go wrong in life.
