I see a counselor once a week at school. She is very nice, and I voice my problems to her. The way I deal with my problems is by simply ignoring them but when I acknowledge them I become very emotional and start to cry. When this happens, I am usually talking to my counselor, who feels my pain too.

To me, this is a sign of sincerity, and feel relaxed knowing that there is someone who cares about me in the slightest bit.

My past therapists aside from mayyybe one really couldn't have given less of a damn about me.

I don't see anything wrong with a therapist crying or showing empathy towards their patients. Knowing that someone else truly cares for you can make a huge difference in how you feel. I think lot of people suffer because they don't have that kind of connection in their personal relationships. I'm not a fan of the cold, emotionally disconnected approach encouraged in the health care industry. Like, I wish it was ok to get a hug from my therapist. Why isn't that a thing yet? I guess I'll just have to see an escort for that, lol. But seriously, people underestimate the importance of compassion and physical intimacy.

Anger and judgment are definitely inappropriate responses though.
