It depends on what you mean by "counselling."

If, by counselling you mean psychotherapy, then yes, that is absolutely considered to be treatment. Psychotherapy might include cognitive behavioral therapy, psychoeducation or dialectic behavioral therapy.

If, by counselling, you mean discussion with a non-professional in an unrecognised way, then no, that likely wouldn't be considered treatment.
