So in your example, I might sign up for a personal trainer to explain how gym equipment works, not to be personally trained or in order to go to the gym or to lose weight or whatever.

I can see where Stopdog is coming from. Excuse me if I am speaking for you or misinterpreting this- if so correct me. But I think she views therapy as a paid for service and in some way it is, it is whatever you want it to be because you are paying for it. She see's t as a professional like a doctor or dentist with whom there is no relationship- just a paid for service, a job and that's ok too as we all have different needs and wants.
