I personally feel that alchohol and caffeine are much worse than marijuana. Some people come home and have a drink or a few, and wake up with a terrible hangover are dehydrated and suffer other residual effects from alcohol. Most people use alcohol to escape, and it's legal. Have you ever gone through caffeine withdrawl? Caffeine withdrawl is a horrible experience than can leave you feeling awful for about 10 days. Pot has no residual effects the next day at all. None.
I think it's wrong for your therapist to say that and think you should change. If you're self medicating then finding the right combo of meds might lessen your desire for pot. She's making a judgement and it's probably on an old school programming that says "it's bad..." Just my suggestions.
