Don't give up hope!!!

It sounds like she isn't the therapist for you, that her approach is Rogerian (pretty sure), and that you are looking for something more focused on developing skills and tackling your problem, fast. You'd probably prefer a cognitive-behavioral therapist.

Tell your current therapist that her approach isn't working for you. If the article about CBT sounds right to you, tell her you'd prefer a CBT therapist. Right now, it sounds like you're wasting your time.
