Hi Lindee!!
You ask some really important questions. I periodically get to a point in my therapy where I feel the need to stop and just re-asses what the heck I'm doing. The first few times I brought this up I felt really uncomfortable, but those awkward conversations have ended up being so positive in the long run.
IMHO, when you start to question what you need out of therapy, it is actually a positive step. It means that part of you is wanting to assert your own needs, which means you are a stronger person now. I would highly recommend taking the time to talk with T about your work together and assess what is and is not working for you.

Now I have a therapist who seems like a very nice lady but she spends most of our sessions shooting the breeze with my husband.

Are you in couples therapy? I'm a bit confused why your T would spend time talking with your husband, if it is your therapy hour.
Maybe you need to have a session where it is just you and T?
You have not brought anyone down...that's what we're here for!
Thanks for posting!
