This technique, whether using a friend/family member or a mental health professional, can be very beneficial. Strong emotions, particularly distress, often cause perception distortion. You can easily get lost in the strong emotions and lose a larger perspective. The feelings begin to change how you see things, and it's easy to trust them because they originate inside of you. We have to learn how to distrust and evaluate our own emotions. Someone who is not inside your head can provide that reorientation and perspective needed to see how the emotions are influencing your perceptions.

Often, it's difficult to hear an outside perspective. It can feel like an attack on you or how you feel. Sometimes tough love is required. This can be easier coming from a neutral mental health professional versus someone you have a relationship with. It just depends on the relationships you have available.
