Which one is better

Two months ago my doctor advised me that it would be a good idea if I saw a shrink about my problems, but I didn't think I needed it.

Two months ago my doctor advised me that it would be a good idea to see a shrink about my problems, but I didn't think I needed it.

Which one is better? Is there a more natural word than advised?
