One thing to consider : How do most people react when being told what to do, especially when it is something that may be scary or hard as hell for them? Alot of the time, they get tuned out. Its been shown that the simple step of talking outloud often solidifies your thoughts and feelings. You may feel you know what to do because you've had to talk it out, even if the therapist didn't do more than just listen.
It doesn't take a therapist to start learning how your mind works. If you go on half.com, there are literally THOUSANDS of textbook style literature at very reduced prices to give you a baseline for information on psychology, sociology and cognition. You can also start just searching online for info: the American Psychological Association has a lot of good links and resources if you type that into Google.
