You're describing a counselor there I believe, you'd really be wasting your money by going to a psychologist just to talk things over or vent. Psychologist would be a good choice if you have a specific issue (preferably on the referral of your GP) you need to treat, namely problematic behaviors or thoughts. Ultimately a clinical psychologist is trained in disorders and treatments, not life advice. There's a good site for this kind of thing though, if someone just wants to talk something over - https://www.7cups.com/ https://www.7cups.com/. Not a group thing like church, but a pretty good stop gap until something better comes along I suppose.
