Well it may be a case of saying- I am not comfortable hearing about your personal life. I would like to talk more in the session- but once you throw down the gauntlet remember you actually do have to talk.

I did have a CPN who was suffering from burnout and was pretty terrible when I went to sessions. I just do not think you should change therapists without telling her your concerns. You can broach it as- I do not think I am making the progress I should and I would really like to talk more in sessions.

I am sorry that this is so difficult but I do think it is a safer environment within which to exercise assertiveness.
