I hope this is not all there is to therapy?

Well, I started counseling and I've had at least two sessions.
So far the first one was better than the second one.
I didn't really say much in the second one and this silence was interpreted by the counselor in a way I didn't think was accurate.
We did discuss some things that I felt, but she didn't hint at any solutions or advice.
She said she was going to give me some kind of homework last time- that did not happen.
At the end of this one she said she was going to push me a little.
So far it's just been me talking and her saying stuff that I could of gotten off the internet, to be honest.
However, I am willing to give it a bit more time and see what happens in the next session and a few after that.

Counsellors do not give advice per se. They help you find your own solutions

@TheDeathOCuHullainn she told me some goofy story about her own life, I really didn't find it very relatable so that's the thing that threw me the most
