I find that many psychologists/therapists love to dissect the psychology and issues of public figures and celebrities, while at the same time they often preach against diagnosing people one has never met. Guess they just cannot resist. My first T did this and it was very easy to see that often his "analyses" were extremely subjective and projected - he imposed his pet ideas on people he only knew about from the media. Another good example is Kirk Honda of the Psychology in Seattle podcast series - he seems better at it and more objective, but still...

Maybe the T attempting to make you more comfortable relating what she sees as your problem to a well-known and admired celebrity. I t would not work for me but many people like to relate to celebrities... I think it is not very good clinical practice to do this with clients. As others suggested, I think you could just tell her stright when you think what she says is BS or unhelpful and ask to focus on helping you.
