You might find therapy much cheaper than the cost of cleaning up the mess when this gets worse.

  That depends on it working. If I've already been open and honest, then what more can a therapist do? The only thing I can think of is the therapist using authority or shame, and that's not allowed. To me it sounds like me paying money for someone to facilitate a conversation. We aren't hostile, so I don't think that's necessary.

    Therapy is more than facilitating a conversation. It may help reframe her (and your) point of view on your relationship. And that doesn't have to entail authority or shame; quite the opposite. Check if your insurance covers it, some plans do.
