In the back of my mind, I have always worried about going to see a T because I fear they are only in it for the money. My last T (years ago) was awful and only cared about getting money out of me and my insurance.

I went to see my GP a few days back and she asked me about my GAD and PTSD. I told her how I've been seeing a T for about 6 months and a PDoc for about 4 months, but I don't feel like anything has changed yet. She asked if they participate in insurance and they do not. I actually took out a small loan to be able to see them. My GP then said exactly what I fear. She said, "You see, mental health professionals want to help you, but not too quickly if you're paying them out of pocket. You're a source of income for them."

What do you all think of this statement? Should I be doubting my T and PDoc because I haven't seen any improvement after many months?
