How many of you feel jaded by the therapeutic process and chosen not to return?

this was the begining of end for me...i just didn't feel there was a need for T when i was the one having the ah-ha breakthrough moments in between sessions with the help of my supportive husband that were actually productive, and did not render me a hopeless empty shell of a person for days on end afterwards, like therapy was (plus husbands support was free). many times i indicated to ex-T that i wanted to work on things that would help to empower me and move forward in my healing, and each time he kept trying to revert me back to wallowing in painful childhood issues that i had come to acknowledge and accept, but knew were no longer helpful for me to remain stuck in. me ex-T didn't quite appreciated the message i was trying to convey because he still chose to focus on what ultimately felt like his agenda, instead of helping me with mine.

What on earth difference does whether or not you pay out of pocket make to the respect you have for your therapist? What a bizarre leap of logic
