Therapists don't have magic powers to make you feel better. The biggest purpose they serve is giving people someone they can talk to openly without being judged or feeling like they are "dumping their problems" on friends and family.
Many problems can be worked out with discussion. The issue is that most people don't have someone they can share their biggest secrets and fears with. Even if you have a spouse or close friend that loves and accepts you no matter what it may put them in a difficult position to give you honest advice. Or maybe you don't feel like burdening that person with your problems.
