Are you forced to see the particular therapist you see? I would be specific and ask specific questions during the initial interview; "Can you help me with practical solutions to how I can stop eating the soap when I take a bath?" and find one that had the most "creative" or interesting-to-me answer (even if I thought up an idiot behavior that I did not have but which reminded me of one I did).

If I'm going to be forced to play the game I want to have as much fun as I can while doing it. When being run out of town, get in front and make it look like a parade?
