Why do some people pay hundreds of dollars for a therapist to sit there and nod and ask basic questions?

I mean equivocating someone who went through 4 years education and specific training in trying to help others with someone who "sits there and nods and asks basic questions" is just really preposterous.

I used to think therapists were authoritative/trained, but I now have a very low opinion of them. I think, in general, most therapists are probably broken people who got a rubber stamp of a degree and they actually have little ability to reason about minds independently.

i came to this conclusion after trying out therapists in my area when I needed help with a problem. They all were absolutely useless and I was honestly shocked at how unskilled and how many basic mistakes they were making. I was like 'wow, their certification means nothing.'
