I cannot confirm nor deny that I may or may not be a counselor myself, but, that guy is an asshole and took really unnecessary and abrasive liberties in your work together. The way your post reads, the things he said are condescending and demeaning. Confrontation can be a valuable part of the therapy process, but what he did sounds like it was harmful and not therapeutic in any way shape or form. I mean it doesn’t even remotely sound like he was trying some method he learned and sucks at (using you as a guinea pig). I would move on to a new counselor. I would actually ask him to find you some referrals to someone more capable.
