Why be suspicious when you said I don't want this and she agreed to it? That's called consideration. And it's perfectly consistent with the motives of someone who wants to actually do a good job.
What do you have to lose by trying these new things out? If you don't think they will work for you after giving it a fair try, you can change it up. But I think you often spend much of your time working against your therapist, then you give it a try and you make progress. Why not cut the front end of this and get to the part where you are open to change?
