Then you need to find a new therapist. Not having the language for therapy is one thing. Not having a therapist that can help you find those words is another.

... and who is going to tell someone that when they've socially isolated themselves by taking time off for an extended period?

The only time I've seen a therapist more often than weekly or bi-weekly was in a short stint in rehab. No way, no how, does normal therapy replace daily contact with others.

Also, most people aren't assertive, informed, or motivated enough to seek a second professional opinion, and that's before we throw grief into the equation. Congrats on describing many therapists with you last line as well.
