It may be a bad sign, it may not be. My current therapist - who makes a lot of sense mostly - told me that when a therapist has no idea what to do, sometimes the best thing to do is to tell the patient that.

It helps to spur mutual problem solving. Your therapist may be trying to elicit a response from you about what you need from them.

I would try and think of ways your therapist can help you, tell them, and move forward from there.

It will also help you to clarify what you want from therapy.

It's worth a shot, especially if you want to continue on with this therapist. I think they are bound by ethics to refer people out that they can't treat.

Bottom line, this may be an opportunity for your therapist to really really help you if you talk about it.
