He does reassure me sometimes. He doesn't others. Sometimes he challenges the distorted thinking implicit in my lack of confidence. If it's something we've been over a lot, he might express his frustration in that nothing he could say would reassure me so he's not quite sure what to say.
But therapists differ widely in their styles. Mine tends to be more interactive and less blank slate.
