I disagree with this, at least for myself. For me, talk therapy is essentially an alternative to 'writing therapy,' where the act of just somehow collecting my thoughts and talking verbally through them (rather than them flashing about in my mind) has more of an impact than the other person accepting whatever it is I am rambling about.
