It is a good first step. Also depending how old you are some therapists work on a sliding scale or wave fees if you cant afford it. The counselor may be able to act as a mediator between you and your parents.

I wouldnt hold off to long as these types of problems tend to brew and just get stronger. I know you will feel better once you let it out there. I hope it is even helping now.
