Sorry, I don't have it in me to read the other responses right now, but I'll give you a slightly different perspective:
I've taught a variety of subjects at various times in the past decade. I was paid for my time, and paid for my efforts. You know what? I did care about my students -- as individuals, and their achievements thrilled me almost as much as the students. I cared about my students, and not the time on the clock, or the (pitiful) amount of my paycheck.
Of course, I am not a therapist, but I suspect that something very similar happens with them. I suspect that they do care about us, that they really do want the best for us -- and FOR US, not for the feather they can stick in their own hats for having "fixed" us.
That's only one person's opinion, but I truly hope it helps you find some light in your current darkness.
