I suppose you could argue that Harry's friends would have supported him in not getting it if they didn't have the Pensieve memories to convince them otherwise. But Hermione would probably still insist on the therapy, as making the difference she thinks Harry should have been seeking all along.
Writing Hermione was fun! I don't think she's had the chance to change that much from school in this story, so it was fairly easy to extrapolate from canon.
I can see Ron being uncomfortable with any major changes, especially because he never expected to have to tolerate Malfoy, of all people.
Poor Draco has been abused, but also not listened to. I thought it was important to bring that forward, so Harry would have no more excuses to do it.
Agarwal will only be in a few more scenes, but I'm glad you like her. Harry really needs a therapist who will, sometimes, not listen to him.
