i have been going to therapy for roughly 7 years now, and i feel like it isn’t helping. i have 45 minute appointments bi-weekly, but i feel like the 45 minutes isn’t enough time. for me, it takes a bit more time each appointment to get ‘recomfortable’ with a therapist, if that makes sense. by the time i feel comfortable, we barely get into anything important and i leave feeling unsatisfied. i’ve seen multiple different therapists, and this is common with all of them. i feel like i might need to find a new provider who doesn’t follow this protocol, but this is a common practice in my area. does anyone have advice on how to break through the awkward part each time and get down to what i need help with? are there therapists out there who see people for more than 45min-1hr at a time?
