I started going to therapy which has done insane wonders for my anxiety and ability to make progress in life.

How long did it take to find a decent therapist? I've been trying for 15 years to no avail because the soft-spoken personality they all seem to have doesn't work for me. I need someone who is willing to get loud, call me out on my bullshit and put me in my place, but unfortunately most therapists seem like they're afraid of offending me. It's annoying.

I can't help with that cause my therapist does that and it helps a lot. He's the only therapist I've had, but he does point out when my mindset is completely wrong and steers me towards a more healthy and helpful one.
