I Would Like To Go For Counselling But Can't Afford To

The only reason I thought about going for counselling is because nothing ever changes in my life and I feel stuck in my life currently. I had a 15 minute chat with my potential counsellor, but she said it'll have to be weekly or at least fortnightly and I really can't afford it. I only wanted once monthly due to finances for 2 or 3 times, but she said I might need more of a life coach than counsellor, but she kept saying about counselling going on for months and months and she even told me she's moving cities next year, like that's how long I'll be going to her for!
What do you think? Is there an alternative or would counselling help? I told her I had esteem issues, but couldn't I work on that myself through a self-help book? Has anyone else been for counselling for something similar and did it help you?

If one wants change in one's life then one has to decide what it is one'd like to change most (as long as it's plausible) and plan, then take steps to cause that change. That far, one is control of their own life direction. (Everyone else is focused on their own life.) One just needs to be sure it's plausible and so attainable.

I shall refrain from you claiming that you are off your head, depressed and the rest when you contact them, but its worth a shout to trigger them into action.
