I know exactly what you mean. I hate investing emotionally in someone who can only be there for me on the condition that I pay her. Especially because money is limited for me (I guess if money were no object, this wouldn't be such a huge issue, right?).
But I've decided that I'm going to invest the money for now. I realize that I can survive without her (my recent reduction in therapy sessions has made me more confident of this) so it makes sense to try to work with her and get as much out of it as I can.
As for whether it (therapy) helps, I've found myself doubting that frequently, but I've decided the only thing I can do is take the leap of faith that it will work and go for it. It's a constant struggle though.
