It's like talking to a true friend without the guilt that you're taking up the entire interaction.
It's like talking to a true friend who draws from personal experience AND their education. A friend who is sensitive to what you're going through but won't sugar coat things. I also believe my therapist would recommend a different person if they felt they weren't helping me or I wasn't getting what I came for. They'll ask if the session was helpful or if you would rather focus on something else but also give their input like, "I think there's more 'here'." and think up an assignment. No one can help you if you don't help yourself. If your therapist gives you homework, DO IT! They can clear the path and lead you to the pond but you can lead a horse to water, you can't make them drink.
