This isn't normal for my sessions. My T and I don't chitchat much. Listening to my friend talk about her sessions with the same T, they chitchat quite a bit. Makes me jealous sometimes. However, she says she cannot just jump in and it takes her quite a while to settle down and be ready to talk. Maybe your T is still trying to help you get comfortable? Are you actually bringing up the subject and she dismisses you? Because THAT isn't acceptable.

Maybe you can go in next time with a written agenda. I know someone else on this forum created a letter with a list of topics she felt she needed to address in therapy. That might help you and and your therapist know where you feel therapy needs to go.
