The issue to me is to what extent you are being sold performance and artifice as something authentic and transcendent.

Personally I don't buy into the idea of healing relational wounds with a relationship that is even a little bit fake. And I found therapy relationships to be more fake than most. So, yea, screw that. The way I coped was to stop going.

Therapists should be held to higher standards, instead they are regarded as saints just because they throw out a few self-disclosures in between hours and hours of being inscrutable and secretive.
Thanks for this!
