"The validation stopped being rewarding a number of sessions ago, and I want something meatier to work on. I've tried telling them this, only to hear that they aren't sure that I actually have anything going on that's deeper than my reacting to my current bad situations and relationships."

Robutts,

This is what jumped out to me when I read your post. IMHO, I don't believe your therapist wants to work on any deeper issues. Having said that, I wouldn't stay with this T. This therapist sounds like a rent a friend therapist for the worried well client. You obviously think there are deeper issues that need to be addressed. If the T isn't willing or capable to go with you on that journey, find someone who is.

Regards,
