I agree but on the other hand since it’s not couples therapy, there is no way to know what he is talking about in therapy and if it’s even remotely related to the issue.

He could be going to therapy and talk about work stress for a year all while OP will be sitting and waiting for him to change. There is also no way to prove that he attends therapy weekly. I think it’s a bit excessive demanding to show a receipt to someone you just started dating.
