I had similar beliefs/problems with the "smarter than I am" qualification and kind of came to realize that there are different kinds of smarts and my T was a PhD in psychology (which I'm not) and was "better" at interactions with other people which I definately needed/need to learn! That she seemed less able in some areas (everyone has their competencies and their weaknesses, therapists and us included) I came to learn after many years with her, my perceptions/ways of judging weren't right at the time. But I kept my eye on what I wanted to learn/come to understand and in those particular areas, she was better, nevermind that she needed a seatbelt for the La-Z-Boy recliner which she could never figure out how to make it recline until I showed her (the lever to pull was "hidden" in a pocket:-)

Have you thought about going to your old T for a few sessions to tide you over until the appointment with the new one? Better than nothing? I've done online, e-mail therapy: http://www.metanoia.org/ for a bit and that was helpful tiding me between sessions?
