I'm 21 and my T is attached to my uni so she has alot of experience of clients my age. I think she is more tuned in to the problems that I might experience and has a good idea of what the people I live and work around are like (because of the other clients she sees). You're T may feel uncomfortable treating people your age if he is not used to it, and like the others said, it may be useful looking at other options.
I don't think that there is an appropriate age to start therapy, except that you have got to be ready for it and want it to help you. In my opinion the earier you sort out your problems the happier the rest of your life will be and you will create less problems for yourself by dealing will situations in the wrong way as you will have learned how to deal with them. _me x
