My first T used to make me do most of the talking and try to come to my own conclusions. I told her in one session that I felt like I was doing too much of the talking and she told me that she was taught in school that therapy was 80% of the patient talking and 20% therapist. I decided to find a new T because I wanted that conversation you mentioned. My new therapist is conversational and I love it. I feel like we are having discussions and that she is offering more. It probably depends on what you are looking for.
