Is it normal my shrink hears me vent for one hour with little advice?

Second time I have been and I get very little advice/input. I basically vent a whole hr and she relays shit like oh so you feel this way because this, that, the other, black blah blah....

*sighs*

Is this how free counselling meant to work? I feel like she is a good listener and we are on the same level as we connect over a lot of issues, other than that, my mums a better counselor 😂

    You get what you pay for. You could try not being a pathetic pussy and deal with your own problems.

      Seeing a counselor doesn't make someone pathetic any more than seeing a doctor does.

    I would find someone else to talk to. They might offer more input.

    Idk what a shrink is but I'm gonna assume its a professional therapist. Maybe you could try a life coach. I've always wanted to try one of those. Counseling has never helped me.

      Like a psychologist. They try to use brain science to break down your inner problems. I had a free one (thanks navy).
