I am in psychodynamic/psychoanalytic therapy. I see my therapist twice a week and feel many times like I could see her 3 times a week, but I could not afford that.
I've been seeing her for 5 years.
Therapy has helped me feel much less anxious, more hopeful, more autonomous, settle into my new job/position at work, have less paranoia, and feel a bit better when alone. These things have all improved, and we are still working on them.
I can't imagine seeing another therapist at the same time. I don't think that would work for me at all. In therapy, anything and everything can be talked about, so I wouldn't need a separate therapist.
What about seeing your current therapist more often, mrmanatee?
