I am in a similar situation although I stopped going to therapy with my T. I said I was too tired ...it was too hard and I needed a break. I'm trying to decide to go back to him (psych dynamic...doesn't push) or try someone different. So I don't have any experiences to share but I would be interested to know... Did you talk to your current T about the structure and asking her to push you more and not let you off the hook?
I'm only saying that because my H. t is psycho dynamic and he doesn't let them off the hook and he pushes him sometimes...
I am meeting with my old T in a few weeks to discuss what it would look like if I went back and I want goals (that we discuss and talk about what I have to do to get to them and discuss where I am in reaching them) and I need him to not let me off the hook...make me go back and talk about the LMB (last minute bomb from the last session)... and when I'm going round and round to avoid a topic to ask me...is this really what you want to talk about today?
If you did ask your T to be more structured or direct, I would be interested to hear what she said in reply if you are willing to share.
