Based on my experience, about 12 years of psychotherapy for depression, the relationship with the therapist is the medium where the therapy is actually performed. Relationships take at least two to build. Even Stuff like the life experience and the personality of the therapist are important. Without the right relationship, you can get support but true therapy requires the establishment of an honest relationship between the therapist and the "patient".
