Good for you... I have done much of the same thing most of my life.
A lot of what a professional therapist does is just let someone talk through a situation. That's at least half of professional life coaching and therapy. Then they may suggest some ideas or approaches you may not have thought of, or provide educational material that explains the issue and allows a person to feel more comfortable with it; which allows a person to find a solution that works for them. That's most of the rest of what life coaching and therapy does. Only a very small % of professional therapy needs more than that.
A good friendship is therapeutic as that is what a real friend does anyway (although they may be limited on what kind of issues they have heard in person, reading on lots of various issues and common causes, alternative ideas or educational material to offer as possible solution options).
Keep up the good work... You sound like a very good person.
I predict that you will do well in life.
Just don't neglect yourself in caring for your friends, and don't be afraid to admit when you don't know. Be good to yourself as well as your friends. 🙂💓🌹
