Isn't that what psychiatrists are for? A friend of mine has sessions on a 2-week basis although he doesn't have any issues. His reasoning is basically that it's nice to have time to talk about himself with someone.

Or therapist.

A psychiatrist is someone who can diagnose you and prescribe medicine. You can talk to them if you want but it costs more.
