I have a therapist but I'm thinking about stopping my sessions because I never felt that I needed it. I'm pretty well put together, not stressed or anxious, great people person, pretty much know exactly what I need to do all the time and good at getting stuff done. What are you supposed to talk about with a therapist if you don't really have any problems?


Perhaps a life coach or career coach would be more helpful if you feel a therapist is too much.


I would just add here that definitively not all therapist are good, and for me I've preferred some coaches, but again not all of them are good. But overall, usually coaches seems to have worked better for me.


I think this is a good piece of advice. Consider a) someone else to talk to b) maybe see them less frequently if things are legitimately good.


If you never felt you needed it, what motivated you to do it in the first place?


Girlfriend suggested it.


Why did she suggest it? I feel like im your therapist now.
