I pay the therapist - that is all I owe to them. It is not the responsibility of a client to make a therapist feel good about their career choices.
I get what you're saying, but it sounded to me like the therapist was simply expressing disappointment that the client had not found enough of value in the work to try to resolve things without quitting. That implies a sense of regret to me, not a request for reassurance. People can express emotions without having an expectation that someone else will remedy them.
Thanks for this!
