Hi there,
I always strongly encourage people to seek out other options of therapies if the current person or type of therapy isn't helping. Not all people or treatments are the same, so there is hope that you will find something that works.
Also, as a MH professional, it's always helpful to hear from someone if the therapy isn't working. A good mental health professional will move the treatment in another direction or give you other options to explore.
Best of luck with it.
