I've been seeing a Psy.D. for several months once weekly for med resistant depression. He doesn't prescribe, i have a psych NP for that. The sessions amount to talking with him about goings on, my thoughts, etc but all I've gotten back so far is him listening and at times, giving instances from his own life as feedback so I know he 'gets my drift'. I have been in therapy most of my life for major depression and most of the therapists I've seen work in the same manner as my current tx. Other than emotional relief, I'm not gaining any understanding of what I need to do, change, see, etc nor do I have any goals to work on or that have been discussed in therapy. I like this therapist and would rather not change but does anyone have ideas about this?
