You have to be willing to get help AND genuinely desire help for it to be effective. If you don't feel comfortable then it's because you have or detect religious bias, or you're not fully deep enough in the emotional hole to just give up and admit you need help. If you want help more than you want to feel comfortable, then you'll be in the right place to receive help. Being uncomfortable is just the cost of having enough skin in the game to care, if you see it that way it may help you feel more comfortable getting help.
I already mentioned this in a prior post.
I think Die has every right to ask for secular therapy that does not involve peddling religion. But I do agree, even with non religious therapy Die does have to be willing to be honest about their behaviors and even medical conditions and mental health issues, and listen to the therapist about how to cope with it in a healthy way.
There is no point to asking for help if all you are doing is simply trying to do is look for excuses for the behaviors you claim you want to change.
