Walk Free, I think SG has asked the key question.

Is your T a couples therapist or a family therapist? My T is a family systems therapist so he can help immensely if he sees more than one member of a family. I have recently embarked on couples therapy with him after 7 months of individual. It is amazing what he has been able to do, he now sees so much more of the picture and understands even better our individual work, because he is seeing the family "system." From what you wrote, it sounds like you are not reaping much benefit from doing couples therapy right now, and your main issues to work on would be more effectively taken care of in individual therapy? I hope you can discuss this with your husband and T. Good luck.
