It might feel that way, but they are ethically bound to refer you if you are not making progress. They cannot continue to take your money but be of no use for you. Whether it's a bad personality match, or you're beyond his scope of competence, or something else altogether, your T does have the right and sometimes the responsibility to refer you elsewhere.
