She's not a bad person but one session I got 5 minutes to talk about myself. I shouldn't have to be charged for this and may surreptitiously record (temporarily) my next session to back me up if they give me flak about quitting her. I hate that it comes to that, but I'm not paying $200 to listen to my therapists problems.

Wow! I am gobsmacked!

No need to stay with a bad therapist, there are plenty good ethical therapists out there.
