I don't think that's your issue. That would seem to be human nature. It's hard enough to open up as it is.
How long have you been seeing him? How often have you addressed this with him? It's a sad truth that not every therapist is for every client.
And even before my therapist and I established a good relationship after five years, I knew it was worth sticking out because he offered me something I had never felt elsewhere. He radiates a calmness even when he's angry or annoyed. And I drank that calmness up like I hadn't had a drink in my life, which I don't think I have. The people in my life do not radiate calmness.
Does your therapist offer something that you need, that makes it worth working on a relationship?
