Hello Pink loyalty, welcome to Psych Central!

Well, as far as I know, it is not the therapist's job to tell or force you to do something. No one can force you into anything. The only time you can be forced would be for example - going into hospital, because you were a danger to yourself or others. Or if your mental health had got to a point where you did not have the capacity to make a decision. As you have said, the therapist's role is to support you and provide psychological treatment for your mental health concerns.

Sounds like you are better off without this therapist, I hope you find one that actually helps you.
