Does insurance pay for your therapy? I know when I was working (I'm an occupational therapist) I sometimes had to cut people loose who were still in need of treatment but insurance felt they weren't progressing fast enough or meeting goals or participating enough or whatever, even when I felt the patient was doing as I expected and as was appropriate.

I pay out of pocket so aside from a brief period when insurance covered (and then denied because I wasn't getting better fast enough) those things haven't mattered.

Sometimes it's a matter of the therapist feels they can't ethically continue because they feel they aren't helping enough. That doesn't necessarily mean you are non-compliant but just that they have done what they can and it is time to move on. In that case seeing a different therapy might be helpful. They should offer a referral if you ask.

I understand the social goal thing. It's been one of my goals for pdoc and therapist for years and I seem to always fail. Church would be lovely but I'm currently asleep through most services (I'm in a small town without multiple service times). I've been supposed to go to drop-in center for well over a year but either felt too awful to try (they say I should and not worry about making a bad impression) but right now the sedation from clozaril is also an excuse. We talked about volunteering at the hospital and I'm going to look into that when I get home from vacation in June, if there is something that doesn't involve dealing with patients which feels too weird after being a healthcare professional for so long.

I know it's hard. But one therapist isn't the only one and if you think you aren't done you can find someone else and maybe even tell them you don't want to feel pressured to do social skill stuff immediately.
