Sometimes, he waits for me to initiate the conversation instead of actively engaging or leading the session. Consequently, I get confused because I’m unsure whether he’s waiting for me to speak or if he’ll take charge and ask me a question to prompt or elicit a response so that he can assist me. I find it frustrating when the therapist appears to be waiting for the “patient” to talk while they’re putting in minimal effort, aren’t asking probing questions, and simply wait for the therapy patient to talk themselves to death until the session ends. I’m not a fan of that approach because I believe it doesn’t effectively help me in the long run. He did provide me with tasks to complete at the end of the previous session, but that’s because I suggested them rather than him suggesting them.
