Try not to worry. Depending on how your private health care works they usually can't tell your work without your approval anyway. I had counselling for a year through work health insurance and they didn't know.

Also, it isn't something to be ashamed of. My husband is the boss at his firm and one of his employees had depression recently. He took time off, they got him counselling and now he is back with no damage to his career.

Hope you feel better soon.
