That's good, b/c it means you're getting something out of your therapy so far.
Once you're 18, you're an adult and your parents have no claim to controlling your life. Whatever role they do play is with your consent.
Parents sometimes have issues with a child's therapy because they see their child developing some independence that they feel threatened by. They also can feel threatened since so many therapy issues relate back to upbringing and relationship with parents.
As for the present, can't you go see the T without parent involvement--if you're 18, you can. Maybe the T would see you based merely on what you personally can pay, and not going thru parent's insurance?
Since you'll be at school in a few weeks the whole game changes.
If a big issue that you have relates to feeling like your parents are trying to run everything in your life, as I had, it can be therapeutic to establish a therapy treatment on your own accord--leave them out of it--as a move of independence.
Even if it gets paid via their insurance, they have no right of access to the records or to communicate with your therapist about you at all. You're protected by the confidentiality agreement regardless if they are your parents or paying the bills.
Aside from all of this, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the degree of autonomy you'll have in your life in a matter of weeks.
