He says that counseling will not help right now because there is lot of chemical disturbance in the mind that needs to be treated first.
I am not a psychiatrist, but I cannot see how counselling will not help you. Even if there are chemical imbalances in the brain, you can still benefit from a good counsellor who is prepared to listen, and support, and meet your psychological needs. Someone who can guide you and help you to understand yourself and what is happening to you on a psychological level.
The medical and the psychological are not incompatible.
