Badly, like, get turned off

Would you please explain the meaning and the use of the words that I have put in bold and underlined in the excerpt below?

"I would get in contact with some people and then I would feel badly because they'd be like 'What's your profession?' and I'd be like 'Oh, I'm in the adult industry,'" she said in reference to her search for a therapist. "Then I'd feel like they're like, 'Oh that's the whole reason that you are the way you are' and then I'd get turned off," she said.

Thank you
