I've been in therapy twice before this round.
First round (two years of hardcore CBT/DBT), I learned all the skills she could teach me. We both knew I was done because my only issue revolved around one decision I had to make that involved one other person. I was willing to make the decision, the other person involved was not.
Second round (9 months of TA/AIT/Redecision therapy), for the last two months all we talked about was my relationship with the boss I had at the time. This particular T did not know what to do about it other than tell me to find another job or wait her out. I decided I was done.
I did not attach to either therapist and did not deal with any deeply-rooted past issues like I am now; but I felt much better after each round.
