Personally, I'm only interested in working with one who is open to hearing my ideas about what works for me, but it is my responsibility to let her know what isn't working. If she decides she ain't changing, and I know that I'm not changing, then it's time for one of us to hit the road . . . and since it's her office, I guess that would be me!

I don't disagree that a client can't make the therapist change. But it can be quite satisfying to tell the therapist just how much and how fully they suck and are failing
