Help with self-harming?

I think the appointment with the counsellor and the psychiatrist is definitely a good start to stop it. You are definitely doing the right thing. You just need to think about what you are going say when you see them.Tell the doctor you cut yourself with scissors nails blades etc. Tell them that you feel pleasure doing so, that you don't do it constantly but do you have the peak times (before exams for example). Tell them about your last breakdown, tell them all the details. You are sick, you do have a kind of disorder but if you don't tell your doctor about it, the diagnosis might be wrong. I also think you shouldn't take your mum to speak to the doctor, she can stay in the waiting room. It is very important that your doctor see you talking about your problems, your reactions, etc. Hope that helps.
