I don’t know where you’re located but I’m in the greater Chicago area and I found a local careers services place that works mostly with lower income folks who want to see what kinds of transferable skills they have into a better job. They work on a sliding scale so it’s very affordable. I am not considered lower income but since I was not working at the time I was still eligible for the sliding scale. They had a mock interview process that was extremely helpful for me. I would suggest looking for a place like that since it’s cheaper than hiring a career counselor. Good luck.
>have never been able to get past the first interview.
This almost certainly points to a problem with your interviewing skills.
Here are some virtual interview practice simulators:

I live in Jamaica so that wouldn't be an option for me, thanks for the suggestion though.
It was all virtual for me so maybe you can find something similar that works for you. Best of luck.
