I feel more like I go to therapy to work than to learn. I feel more like we work together on things rather than that he's instructing me. For me therapy is more about unresolved grief and past trauma. On the grief stuff in particular, I don't think there's anything he can teach me (and I'm not convinced he knows more than me about it). I need someone to be with me in it.
I love education, and I love learning. I just don't think that's what my therapy is about. For me, therapy is more about feeling. I do think he's helping to reset my brain, but it's a squishier thing than instruction.
