I think it's good that you were transparent with your therapist and don't think that him/her referring you to someone more experienced / who specializes in BP treatment is necessarily a "bad" thing. I hope that your wife begins taking things more seriously ... maybe her coming to a session with your T could help that come along.
Keep fighting the good fight
