Welcome
I have found having a small problem with alcohol was like being a little bit pregnant
maybe it will be different for you, however the odds are against it
you have gotten some great advice, oh, and by the way, I am 44 and most everyone I know my age got sober in their teens or twenties, so you are not too young, and also by the way, we had a blast in sobriety
Personally my experience with counselors and doctors is they didn't know f*ck all about alcoholism except a little bit here and there, which was mostly wrong, my experience in sobriety has done little to change my opinion of that, although there are good therapists that specialize in addiction for after you get sober, that however is just my experience, thus my opinion, I found people who know about alcoholism are recovered alcoholics.
Looking forward to watching your journey
